| - I would say that the glory of this mall would impress Caesar himself. Each time I visited The Forum Shops while living in Las Vegas I always managed to discover something new. While walking down the cobblestone, one can actually forget that they are in what can easily be considered the most tacky and ridiculous places on earth (not that that's a bad thing).
My Top 3 Favorite Things:
3. The beautiful faux sky ceilings: This feature really is the icing on the ancient Roman cake. It is not only what helps transport your imagination to time of Caesar, but is also simply a breath taking sight that could beatify any space. I wish I could paint all the ceilings of my home just so.
2. The half-moon fish tank: Ok, the Poseidon show in front of the take is very strange and does not do it's home any justice, but the fish tank that is it's backdrop is amazing. Not too many things could make eating a piece of Cheesecake Factory lemon-raspberry cheesecake better than being able to munch it while watching all those beautiful fish.
1. F. A. O. Schwarz: Calling all children and inner children. This is the toy store of all toy stores. It may be immature of me to say that this is my favorite store in The Forums, but...who cares! I run around this store like a crazy, high on sugar, child. If you've never been you might not understand why, but that is all the more reason to go. :)
If you're planning a trip to Las Vegas, this is an excellent place to shop, dine, and be entertained. Be prepared to be "wowed" and probably experience childish excitement.
The only word of caution I feel I must give is, cobblestone and heels do NOT mix. So, if you can't get over the fear of looking you're natural height, get over it or break a leg. :)
