I have always heard of Tysons Corner, the good and the bad. I just never really had a reason or the…read moretime to come out this way to visit this shopping center. However, on a recent trip coming back home, I made my way here to kill some time as I had the day off from work. First things first, what a nightmare to find a parking spot and to not get run over by traversing the parking area. I thought I had gone the wrong way at one point to find a spot. And when I did find a spot I was confused and thought I had to pay to park. I wish it were just easily marked on where to go here. Once parked, I found my way inside and just meandered around the space. Popping in an out of stores as I saw appealing. They really do have a ton of selections here. Huge amount of time can be lost here if you are on a time crunch. I was in no rush, so I wandered around until I had my fill of the space. My suggestion to you. Come early in the morning, you will definitely be able to get in and out of each store you need to with ample time. Less hassle in the parking lot. And less hassle walking between stores. Or, if you are up for it, travel here by Metro.

We visit Tysons Corner once a year. It's located in a busy area of Virginia. Its close proximity to…read moreDC and a nearby metro station make it an ideal location for tourists who want to go shopping in a relatively safe area. It's ever changing as many stores have come and gone. Nevertheless, this is my favorite mall to visit when we make our annual trip to DC. Tysons Corner is located in Tysons, Virginia. The parking structure is very busy and somewhat chaotic. It doesn't have the best layout and there's a lot of confusion as people maneuver through the structure. We bypass this situation by parking on the upper level. Tysons Corner is an incredibly busy mall that never seems to be empty, regardless of the time of day that you visit. This is a three story indoor shopping mall that caters to customers who want to spend serious money. They have your typical stores like Old Navy and Journeys. But then, you'll find Cartier, Louis Vuitton, and Rolex. So, there's something for everyone! Their food court section on the top level near the movie theater has seen better days. It's outdated and hidden away from the rest of the mall. All of the other eateries on the 1st and 2nd levels are pretty nice. They have restaurants like Seasons 52 and Cheesecake Factory that you'd typically find at many of the larger malls. They also have some pop up eateries in the center of the shopping center. I love coming to Tysons Corner. I am still bummed about LL Bean leaving this mall. but I still love this mall. Some stores have moved to different locations within the mall, so make sure that you check the updated directory. The best times to visit Tysons Corner are either early in the morning or about an hour before closing. If you want to get some shopping done while in the area, Tysons Corner is the place for you!

Personal opinion would rather have a full gym instead. On a plus note it's close to Tyson's Corner Mall, and the parking situation is a cinch.

I have parked there many times before and I'm aware of the need to press the free parking button on the meter. I did press the button and I'm sure the 2 hours appeared. But there is no way to prove this. I did talk to Harris Teeter's manager and he told me they tow regardless of the meter and recommend parking on the upper level that Harris Teeter owns as they don't tow there. Also be aware that the signage on the lower level is limited and the towing enforced signage does not even include a phone number for the towing company. I had to walk up to Harris Teeter's garage to find a sign and number. My recommendation is to stay away from the lower level parking that is shared by Harris Teeter and Avenir Pl. As even honest people can find themselves paying 200 bucks through no fault of their own, it's just not worth the risk.

Besides the fact that there are so many places I frequent, like the gas station (they take those Giant points!), CVS, The UPS Store , Aldi, and Starbucks, I really enjoy it for 2 reasons: 1.

It's kind of funny, but all the time people walk by smiling and saying hello and sometimes we even end up having a short conversation! It's great!! I don't know what it is about this place, but I definitely really enjoy and appreciate it! :)

There's only two stores worthy of putting my vehicle in park at this location. That would be Music and Arts, and also the Russian gourmet. The light store and others aren't anything spectacular.

No matter when, or where, I go, the item I want is out of stock in the size I need. I really am drawn to their novelty tees.

This stop they had a bunch that I liked, but after searching through everything there, not in my size, as I mentioned above. The selection of other items is great here, but not always what I'm looking for. If I wanted single color matching outfits, this is a great place to pick that up. However, that was not what I was in the mood for this time. Would definitely stop back in here if I am in the area again, but with more and more of these popping up there are locations closer to me.

I think the Potomac Mills Primark has a larger selection of kids clothes, however, this location excels with kids accessories and home products.

You will feel like you're four-wheeling, and you will have to watch out for your life as there are no stop signs where they should be, and peeps are rude, flippin' & honking. The potential is there if the property management company chooses to act on it.
