One of the most extraordinary shopping experiences on the Strip, the Grand Canal Shoppes are modeled on the canals of Venice, with meandering roads, stone bridges, and intricate waterways providing a romantic backdrop for a number of clothing and accessories stores, including a large Barney's New York. The center of this complex is St. Mark's Square, a grand open space where Italian opera singers and street performers vie for your attention. And of course there are gondolas, which will whisk you around the canals for $19 per person.
