Lonely Planet review

Billed as an 'urban retail resort', Festival City is so massive that you half expect to see a 747 parked outside. It encompasses a whopping 2.8-million sq ft, including 600 stores - 25 of them 'anchor stores' - 100 restaurants and cafés, outdoor performance spaces, and three enormous hotels, including an InterContinental and a new Four Seasons golf resort.

While the manmade canals and abra rides are cute, the real show-stopper is the origami-inspired cubist fountain that doubles as a grand staircase. Wear sensible shoes - you're gonna need 'em.
