Americana: Shopping in the U.S.A.









The Americana in Glendale, CA describes itself as the ultimate shopping experience. It combines sophisticated shopping, movie theaters, fine dining, elegant tram rides and dancing fountains creating fun for everyone from infants to adolescents to octogenarians. The Americana is more like Disneyland than your average shopping mall. It is both perfect for date night and an afternoon walk with the stroller to the playground. In the afternoon and evening, an old fashioned trolley car makes laps around. The free five minute ride can be walked in the same amount of time, but its much more fun to take the ride.
