Stretching from Broadway Boulevard to Wilshire Boulevard, Third Street Promenade is a pedestrian-only paradise. This three-block-long street features street performers, restaurants, and shops that line both sides of the promenade—you’ll see a good list of retail chains intermixed with independently owned mom-and-pop boutiques. Taste local produce at the Arizona Avenue Farmer’s Market, held Wednesday and Saturday mornings. On a warm day, cool off with a cone of coconut gelato served from a kiosk in the middle of the promenade.
