The terrace of this building looked new and interesting. Maybe it was a reconstructed part of downtown, from a fire that burned a few years ago. I took the elevator up to use the Ladies Room. Unfortunately this terrace section of the building had not been developed--or rented out yet. It was unadorned concrete with a few tables and chairs surrounding the elevator with a view to the street. The public restrooms were at the back near the stairs. This section was more developed and quite pleasing to look at, however be warned that it will cost a quarter to enter the Ladies Room--probably the Mens room too. On the lower level in this back section there were several curio shops which seemed to carry a more modern inventory. One item I especially liked was the framed copies of Frieda. I thought I'd take a picture of them and make a VT shopping tip, giving name to that shop. Opps! "No Camera!" A frantic voice yelled at me. Obediently I lowered my camera, said, "Sorry," and continued on. So, no picture and no shop name. Leave a Comment

 Jose Cuervo 1800 by lmkluque All of my fondest memories in Tijuana are of a delicious lunch or dinner with great friends and a relaxing good time. Of course, when I was younger, dancing was my favorite thing to do in TJ. I loved that Latin music and cumbia was my favorite dance. I love to do shooters--shots of Tequila with salt and lime, but not too many at once. The best tequila to order--in my opinion is Jose Cuervo 1800--just ask for 'mil ocho cientos' and they'll know what to bring. Wet the top area of your hand--between the thumb and pointer finger then sprinkle salt on it. With the same hand hold a wedge of lime. Now, drink the whole shot of tequila, lick the salt and bite on the lime, mmmmmm you must try it at least once. Leave a Comment

by spartan If you're here to shop, drink and shake your stuff, you won't need to wander far off the few blocks of Avenida Revolución between 1st and about 8th streets. Here there's an uninterrupted stream of bars, dance clubs, malls, markets and souvenir stalls, and more or less permanent crowds. Leave a Comment

by Richmond SECRET SHOPPING - Not all of the merchants vying for your money have a storefront on the sidewalk of Avenida Revolucion. There are a lot of mini-malls with a common entrance that lead back to a variety of booths with an amazing diversity of items for sale. The most unusual 'Secret Shopping' area is an underground market covering an entire city block. Marked only by an easy-to-miss sign advertising 'Hotel Lafayette', a cool and relaxed shopping experience unfolds for the adventuresome traveler who journeys down the strong wooden stairs to discover what waits below. Few tourists discover this area, which means the merchants are friendlier and more willing to bargain on price. Longing for a Mexican experience without the normal street-level hype? This is an excellent choice! Leave a Comment

by trotador Downtown Tijuana, known as the Zona Centro has all the life night and day particularly along Avenida Revolucion, the main street. Also in Zona Centro is the cathedral of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Leave a Comment

by colin_bramso I think the main street was called Avenida Revolucion. If you stay around there, you'll find just about everything in the way of souvenirs, shops, restaurants, clubs. Leave a Comment

by colin_bramso If you want a souvenir that's not too heavy to carry, look out for the guys selling huge, colourful artificial flowers. Actually, you don't have to look out for them, they're everywhere! Leave a Comment

by Judd Go to Revolucion Street, which is the main shopping street in Tijuana.
There is all kinds of merchandise on sale here, and the rule of the game is to haggle. The merchants expect it, and I was buying things that I didn't even want just to haggle. It's all fun, start off with an offer of half of what the merchant quotes you. You can always walk away and they will either chase you down or you can go to another store a few feet away.
