Attracting more than 10 million visitors worldwide, the 2-million-square-foot Fashion Show mall features more boutique and chain shops than one could ever hope for.

The Fashion Show may be huge, but it’s certainly not intimidating. Its wide aisles, bright atmosphere and easy-to-follow shopping legend make it easy to navigate. In addition, the mall has plenty of chairs, benches and couches for resting, many of which are tucked away in peaceful, quiet areas.

One of the mall's most unique features is the Great Hall, a multimillion dollar event area that features an 80-foot retractable runway -- making it possible to have fashion shows at Fashion Show. There are house fashion shows, several days a week.

Saks, Macy's and Dillard's are roomy and inviting, and even when there's an overflow of shoppers, it's easy to make your way through. The giant, three-level Nordstrom features a massive shoe department, while Bloomingdale's Home features an array of beautiful, classy items like picture frames, vases and other home décor pieces. Neiman Marcus rounds out the beautifully-appointed department stores.

One store not to miss is Centaur Art Galleries. Featuring masterpieces from notable artists as early as the 16^th century to modern times, shoppers can enjoy flipping through several authentic paintings and learning the history behind each work. There are also a handful of showcase rooms where guests can sit on couches, pick up a painting and hang it on the wall.

If you’re ready to give your home a few nice touches, then head over to Z Gallerie. From classic and contemporary designs to bright to neutral tones, Z Gallerie has everything one could imagine. Z Gallerie has sales pretty frequently, so keep an eye out for that special furniture or home décor piece.  

If you’re into the boutiques, the Fashion Show mall has more than 200 stores to choose from. Make sure to check out hip shops like Zara (which features a high-end collection as well as trendy, affordable clothing), Ruehl , Metropark, True Religion and Talulah G, to name a few. For comfy, yet cute threads, young women can head over to Madewell, which infuses earthy chic with a touch of vintage, urban cool.

Fun stores include Teavana, a dainty little shop that sells loose leaf teas and colorful teapot sets and Futuretronics, which carries some of the slimmest, most compact electronics you'll find in the market.

Shoppers who work up an appetite can stop by the 11,288-square-foot food court with the likes of Haagen Dazs, Chinese Gourmet Express and Hot Dog On A Stick restaurants. Not in a hurry? Then stop by the popular California Pizza Kitchen. There is also an outdoor balcony overlooking the Strip and the mall's large plaza below -- an ideal place to stop and eat. Here, guests can purchase a cool, refreshing treat at the Gelato Café.  

There are bridges and escalators outdoors that connect the Fashion Show mall, Wynn Las Vegas, Venetian and Treasure Island. This makes it convenient for shoppers to travel without the hassle of crossing the street.
