10Best Says

With over 100 top shops including Burberry, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Saint Laurent and Versace, the Beverly Center has been a Los Angeles shopping fixture since it opened in 1982; it recently had a complete makeover, too. Towering eight stories high, the mall has appeared in numerous films and television shows; it truly is an iconic shopping structure! Bloomingdale's and Macy's are here, too, as well as restaurants that sit mostly on street level. Inside, there's a feeling of spacious grandness and luxury. The best way to experience this huge mall is to go in without an agenda and just stroll; we recommend that especially on a hot day when the cool indoor space just might offer up that perfect item you've been looking for.

EXPERT TIPS BY: Jenny Peters
Los Angeles Local Expert

Best Shopping: "Park in the structure for $1 per hour, then jump in an elevator to the sixth floor, as that's where the shops begin in this massive structure. The escalators will take you forever!"

Recommended as Best Shopping Because: This is the largest indoor shopping center in town, centrally located in the Beverly Hills-West Hollywood neighborhoods, with lots of high-end shopping and dining.
