Basaic Says: Navajo are close to the earth and have a special connection with their animals. Rodeo competitions are very popular, too.
Basaic Says: The number four is a sacred number to the Navajo and occurs throughout their philosophy. There are the four cardinal directions, four sacred mountains, four sacred colors, the four seasons and the first four clans. In the main room of the museum, in the appropriate places,...
Museum: Great Seal of the Navajo Nation
Basaic Says: Prominant in the main room is the Great Seal of the Navajo Nation along with an explanation of the symbology involved. The seal was officially adopted by the Tribal Council on 18 January 1852 and was designed by John Claw, Jr. of Many Farms, AZ. The seal has a rainbow...
Basaic Says: There are two types of hogans; male and female. Depicted here is a male hogan. Most ceremonies take place in the male hogans.
Basaic Says: The centerpiece of the main room is a full sized traditional hogan. Inside the hogan are a number of examples of Navajo arts and handicrafts. There is also a seating area where you can sit and watch films about local arts and artists. Traditional hogans are built a very...
Basaic Says: Just outside the theater, and before you enter the main room of the museum is a display about the constellations in the Navajo skies and how they influence the beliefs and lives of the people.
Basaic Says: A great way to begin your visit to the museum is to watch one or more of the short informative videos available in the theater located just inside the entrance.
Basaic Says: The Explore Navajo Museum, a hands-on museum, is located behind the historic Tuba Trading Post. It has a number of very interesting displays that explain a lot about the life, art and traditions of the Navajo (Dine) People. The displays are well presented and informative....
Basaic Says: The Tuba Trading Post has been in operation since 1870. It is still in operation and has a small grocery and lots of local art, crafts and souvenirs. There is a history walk leading to one of the entrances, that has some interpretive signs about the history of the trading...
FREE EVENT "Fridays Indian Market"
flnavajo Says: Open ONLY one day a week every FRIDAY. Free to the public. Local Natives selling handmade Indian crafts, jewelery, pottery, vegtables, fruits, herbal medicines and garage & flea market items. What a mix. Food vendors selling prepared Native foods like Navajo Tacos, ground...

Dine Inn: Local Navajo owned Motel
flnavajo Says: Average lower end pricing than the commercial or francise accomodations. Simple clean rooms but limited few units, owner trying to expand and add to the motel. Close to area gas stations (3) and the "Bashas Dine Market" grocery store.
Hogan Restaurant: Try Some Good Navajo Food
Basaic Says: The Hogan Restaurant is designed like a traditional hogan, and has an interesting decor featuring Navajo rugs and other designs. They serve Mexican, American and Navajo dishes. I suggest trying some Navajo Food. I had the Mutton Stew with Garden Fresh Vegetables and some...
Kates Cafe: Where the locals (Natives) go to eat.
flnavajo Says: Navajo tacos are made here and the quality of the food is better. The menu is American but try & ask what is local in Native foods like:The Navajo Tacos, The Navajo Pinto beans w/fry bread.
Helpfulness
It's just a large co-op owned by the local Indian tribes, where many native art items are sold. Prices are pretty good, and the profits are going directly to the people who make the products.
What to buy: I like the artwork and native silver and gem jewelry.
What to pay: Depends on what you buy. Prices were better in Tuba City than anywhere in the near area, in our opinion.
