Hark back to a time when shopping on a street was a friendly, inviting experience when you visit 4th Street in Long Beach. This is a section of the city that stretches between Cherry and Junipero streets and is referred to as Retro Row. There are over 40 independent merchants who specialize in the unexpected. Among these cool and kitschy shops you will find vintage and contemporary clothing, furniture and accessories, art, antiques and collectibles, books and lots more. There are also several locally-owned restaurants, coffee shops and wine bars that add to the charm of this very unique part of Long Beach.

Art isn't meant to just engage your eyes. Great art moves you, speaks to you, and inspires you to want to learn more about it. That's exactly what you will experience when you visit the Long Beach Museum of Art. Featuring some of the most impressive pieces of work rendered in various media, this popular attraction embraces both the creations and the creators of art. The museum itself qualifies as a unique piece of art in its own right, as its stunning construction and design allow the building to be situated atop a bluff which offers an equally mesmerizing view of Long Beach Harbor.
