South Congress Avenue<\/a> is an iconic Austin<\/a> shopping hub that showcases many local shops and restaurants. So it’s your best bet if you want to get a feel for the eccentric Austin<\/a> culture. But if high-end chains are more of your style, make sure to check out The Domain,<\/a> which features stores like Macy’s<\/a>, Tiffany & Co.<\/a>, and Louis Vuitton<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After enjoying all your favorite watersports<\/a> on the lake, you can start your Atlanta day trip at Atlantic Station<\/a>. This collection of over 30 retailers includes the Southeast’s flagship<\/a> H&M<\/a> store. Atlantic Station also hosts concerts, outdoor movies, and ice skating throughout the year. Next, if high-end shopping is on your radar, you can peruse over 250 specialty stores and brands like Pandora<\/a> and Nieman Marcus<\/a> at Lenox Square<\/a>. To end the day, you can grab a bite from the gourmet food stalls at Ponce City Market<\/a> and stroll through the eccentric shops. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mercato<\/a> also is a popular historic shopping center. Its 19th-century shops have a European feel to them and showcase jewelry, art galleries, wine, artisan goods, and more.
