Stanford Shopping Center – Upscale open air shopping center

Stanford Shopping Center is a collection of upscale boutiques and department stores. The center hosts four giants: Macy’s, Nordstrom, Bloomingdale’s and Neiman Marcus. As these name implies, shopping trips here can drain your wallet very effectively.

These department stores are surrounded with a selection of specialty stores that cater the most areas of living: books, children, cosmetics, gifts, jewelry, clothing (almost half of the stores), shoes and so forth.

All the shops are on one floor — or in fact, there are no floors at all, as the shops are located on alleys that grow trees and flowers. This is not your typical mall, but an elaborated version for places with good weather around the year.

There are also a wide variety of restaurants, but surprisingly enough only one fast food joint (McDonald’s).

The shopping center is on El Camino Real, near University Avenue.
