 Union
Square
and the surrounding district contain
most of San Francisco's
prime shopping opportunities. Most major department
stores, malls and fashion outlets are concentrated in
this area, and for the serious shopper, this is the
place to go. Especially from the world of fashion, you
can find it all around Union Square. The gigantic Neiman
Marcus store (150 Stockton Street) is located here,
presenting a wide assortment of fashion, accessories
and cosmetics under the historic "City of Paris"
glass dome that was integrated into the new department
store. Furthermore, Macy's (170 O'Farrell Street) is
present with a huge, two-building store, so is Saks
Fifth
Avenue (220 Post Street) offering everything from the
world of haute couture by designers like Yves St. Laurent
and Oscar de la Renta - every bit as exclusive as its
Manhattan namesake. And besides exclusive shopping,
the Union Square area offers a vast number of excellent
restaurants and cafes inviting the shopper for a quick
break over a coffee or light snack.
