Once a rural area dotted with farms, Fairfax County in the 21st century is a growing metropolis with a thriving technology industry. With its 300 parks, proximity to the nation's capital and a host of historic homes, Fairfax County offers visitors a unique experience. Interspersed with Fairfax County's impressive collection of 18th and 19th century landmarks are several popular contemporary attractions. Wolf Trap Farm Park for the Performing Arts is the only national park for the performing arts. With the open-air Filene Center and the cozier Barns, Wolf Trap offers a variety of musical entertainment throughout the year. George Mason University's Center for the Arts and Patriot Center also host a wide variety of arts, music and entertainment options. Fairfax County has one of the largest concentrations of retail shopping on the East Coast. Tysons Corner Center and Tysons Galleria contain such stores as Bloomingdales, Macy's, Saks Fifth Avenue, Lord and Taylor, and Nordstrom as well as hundreds of upscale boutiques, specialty shops and restaurants. Fairfax Square features such name stores as Tiffany & Co., Hermes, Gucci and Fendi. Regional shopping malls include Fair Oaks and Springfield. Fairfax County enjoys the best of both worlds: Proximity to Washington, D.C. and all of the national monuments and museums, but with a unique history of its own.
