Lazona Kawasaki Plaza (ラゾーナ川崎プラザ, Razōna Kawasaki puraza) is a shopping mall in Saiwai-ku, Kawasaki, Kanagawa, Japan. The mall adjoins the west side Kawasaki Station.

The project designed by Ricardo Bofill in association with Yamashita Sekkei for Mitsui & Toshiba was inaugurated in September 2006.

The building consists of a building articulated around a semicircular plaza that acts as the pole of attraction for the inhabitants of the area (10 million people). The 4-storey building includes offices, a museum, a cultural centre, department stores, shops and cinemas. There is a supermarket at the first underground level. The parking is located at the second underground level. A semicircular exterior plaza becomes the pivotal space of junction.

Visitors have direct acces to the mall through the metro station. La Zona gathers more than half a million visitors per day.
