Not really a shopping post, unless you need access to American stores. There is some pottery, bright fabrics, leather goods if you want them, but I’ve seen similar stuff throughout Mexico. - Jun 2019


Mata Ortiz pottery, other ceramics and Mexican handicrafts. - Feb 2019


Target in the US is a short drive away. Most handicrafts are brought in from other parts of Mexico. It's generally better to buy these things when you're travelling. - Jan 2019
