While you'll want a healthy budget to shop at stores like Anthropologie, Vuori, Lululemon, Tiffany, Coach, and Eileen Fisher, simply walking through the grounds is a treat in itself. The restaurants are all gorgeous and offer excellent outdoor dining to take in the views. True Food Kitchen and North Italia are our personal favorites for a sit-down meal. Whether you're stopping by for an early morning coffee from haute coffee or finishing an evening with some ice cream from Frost Gelato, the atmosphere is perfect. Pro Tip: If you want a refreshing drink that won't break the bank, AJ's Fine Foods is just steps away. Grab one of their famous iced teas and enjoy a stroll through the courtyards!

While visiting Tucson, we decided to pop out for a little shopping and lunch, so off to Yelp we…read morewent and La Encantada popped up. La Encantada is a nice outdoor shopping and dining complex that offers more high-end options in both dining and stores. We were not after anything particular, so we hit up Tommy Bahama, Levis, Spirit of Sante Fe and Tecovas for shopping, then grabbed lunch at Firebirds and had a coffee at Haute Coffee while we waited on our Uber. The complex is clean, well mapped out and has an okay amount of options for shopping, but could use a few more casual spots in both retail and dining. Overall, solid place to wander around and spend a few hours of an afternoon at.

There's a wonderful olive oil shop with some of the finest selections, along with a few restaurants, cozy courtyards featuring a large TV screen, a stage for concerts, cafés, a bakery, and even a farmers market on weekends.

After a hot yoga session at the Yoga POD, you can pop into the Ice Box for cryotherapy, grab an ice cream or coffee with friends, or plan a relaxed date night with your significant other. It's truly the perfect place to fall in love with authentic Sonoran charm. Try it !

While I have seen worse malls around the country, Tucson Mall is middle of the road in the world of…read moreclassic indoor malls. They are anchored by a few big stores such as Dillard's, Macy's and JCPenney, have several quintessential mall stores such as Hot Topic, Bath & Body Works and Finish Line...and of course they are connected to the famed mall restaurant, Cheesecake Factory. There are a few open spots along each floor, but for the most part, it appears that the mall is at least 70 - 75% occupied. One end of the mall is definitely slower than the other, which makes sense as the food court is on one end, and it is the more active and "happening" part of the mall. While most stores are chain, there are a few local spots from coffee shops, barbers, artists and even massage spots. The mall was clean and in decent shape for what it is. It is dated and you can tell no resources have been put into it recently. Overall, okay indoor mall that serves its purpose and doing good by hanging on!
