El Paso/Juarez Shopping

At the crossroads of two countries and three states is an international center of commerce where the exotic is everywhere.

Within an hour's drive are art galleries, Southwestern furniture, designer clothing, precious antiques and handcrafted artwork. Throughout the year, spacious and air-conditioned malls with refreshing fountains and charming décor make shopping local boutiques and national chains a pleasure. Of course, for a truly Mexican shopping experience, one must cross into Juárez.

Once over the border, you enter an exotic blend of the past and present. From booths in multistory malls or open-air markets, merchants call out to passersby, hawking their wares. You will be invited to enter "just to look" but you will find it difficult to leave without purchasing one of the many delightful items on display. For a truly "international" shopping experience, there is no better place than El Paso.
