Irvine Spectrum shopping center is one of the largest shopping malls in Southern California. If you are planning a trip here put on your walking shoes. The first thing you notice when approaching the mall is the large ferris wheel in the center.

The 108-foot giant wheel gives riders a birds eye view of the shopping center and the mountains beyond. The center was one of the first in the country to be anchored by restaurants and entertainment venues when it was built in 1995. Today the mall also has 164 stores including upscale retailer Nordstrom. Millions of people visit Irvine Spectrum each year for shopping and entertainment.

At one time parking was a real problem at the Spectrum but with the addition of two multi level parking structures parking have got a lot easier. Through out the mall you will find many fountains including a pop jet fountain for kids. There is also a Carousel with 32 animals and horses.

One of the original structures and still the most popular is Edwards Irvine Spectrum 21 which has the only IMAX theater in the area. Some of Irvine Spectrum Center’s most popular restaurants are The Cheesecake Factory, P.F. Chang’s China Bistro,California Pizza Kitchen and Javier’s Cantina & Grill.
