Seattle-area malls are located in areas as far north as Tulalip and as far south as Tukwila. Also worth checking into are the Tacoma-area malls of the South Sound.
South Sound Shopping Destinations: Tacoma Mall | South Hill Mall | Lakewood Towne Center | Freighthouse Square | B&I
1. Bellevue Square Mall
Bellevue Square is a fantastic shopping center for just about anyone. The mall is anchored by Macy’s, Nordstrom, and JCPenney, but there are literally hundreds of stores here.

Chang’s, Ruth’s Chris Steak House, and The Cheesecake Factory are just a sampling of the choices here. A special perk that you will not find in shopping centers directly in Seattle—parking is free.
