This is an upmarket outdoor shopping street rather than somewhere kids run around. Reviewers rate the landscaping and fountains and note plenty of comfortable seating for a break. Street and structure parking are both available, and the walkways stay open to stroll after the shops close.
The open-air anchor of the El Paseo shopping district, with fountains, courtyards and shaded seating that make it an easy free wander even if you're not shopping. Kids like the fountains and the seasonal decor, and there are casual dining spots for a break. Come in the evening in summer when it cools and the courtyards light up.

Very lovely shopping area. The landscape is well taken care of. People are allowed to walk around with their pets. Even after the shops close you are able to walk around. It definitely has a chill vibe atmosphere after it cools down. Plenty of parking is available.
