Universal CityWalk is a 3-block-long stretch is filled with restaurants, shops, bars, and entertainment venues, all glittering and glossy. It is an unabashedly commercial fantasy promenade. It's also the place to go before or after your visit to nearby Universal Studios.

Start with the flashy name-brand stores, such as Billabong, Fossil, Abercrombie & Fitch, or take in a film at the six-story 3-D IMAX theater or the the 18-screen CityWalk Cinemas. There’s even NASCAR virtual racing and an indoor sky-diving wind tunnel. Restaurants include the Hard Rock Café, Daily Grill, and Saddle Ranch. And if you’re staying late, check out the nightclubs including Howl at the Moon, the dueling piano bar or Rumba Room Latin dance club. 

And if you’d just rather relax, stop in at the Zen Zone to indulge in a 20-minute "aqua massage,” where you lay down fully clothed atop a rubber sheet and feel strong rotating jets of water massage your backside from neck to toe.
