Historic Center
The city's historic center is the vibrant heart of the city, full of historical significance. Visitors can walk through its streets and discover places such as the cathedral, the Plaza de Armas, the Museum of the Revolution in the border, Mercado Cuauhtémoc, and a variety of stores and restaurants that offer a look into the past and present of the city, especially on the bustling 16 de Septiembre avenue.
El Chamizal
El Chamizal is a large green space in the city that offers different attractions for locals and visitors. More than a park, it's a symbol of a pacific solution to a dispute over the border between Mexico and the United States. It functions as a popular recreation area with ample paths for walking or cycling, sports fields, and picnic areas, which makes it ideal for families or those who enjoy the outdoors. Within the park is the Chamizal Museum of Archeology, which has exhibitions about different pre-Hispanic cultures and is the host of different shows, markets, and events.
Dunas de Samalayuca
A short drive from Ciudad Juarez are the Samalayuca Dunes, an impressive natural landscape of golden sand dunes. This region is part of the Chihuahuan Desert and offers an opportunity to do activities that range from spending a day with the family, sandboarding, exploring in all-terrain vehicles, and more. The beauty of this desert landscape contrasts directly with the urban landscape, making it a popular destination for locals and tourists alike.
