There’s something about Maine that makes you want to take a piece of it home with you. Several pieces, most likely. You’ll know it when you see it.
Shopping in Maine’s Historic Cities & Towns
Maine’s historic cities offer more than a trip down memory lane. At shops, boutiques and galleries — from Kittery to Bangor — you’ll find gifts and treasures to make a little shopping history of your own.
Freeport
With a variety of outlet stores and the L.L.Bean Flagship Store, there’s no better way to score the season’s best savings.
Bangor
Browse the many independent, family-owned stores in the city’s riverside downtown, like The Rock & Art Shop. For the perfect gift to give someone who has everything, try the Antique Marketplace & Cafe.
Portland
Visit Blanche and Mimi for cozy fall essentials like candles, pillows and throws, or stop by Bliss for a new pair of fashionable fall boots.
Kittery
Take a ride to Kittery, in far southern Maine, the state’s oldest incorporated town. A primary attraction is the stretch of outlet stores, including the Kittery Outlets and Kittery Premium Outlets, that hug Route 1.
