Nuevo Laredo Shopping From inexpensive paper flowers and hammocks to designer clothes and handcrafted furniture, Nuevo Laredo boasts some of the border's best shopping. Here's a look at some of our favorites: Nuevo Mercado. Avenida Guerrero, four blocks from
the International Bridge. The mercado, or market, is the one place that
all tourists visit. Here you find many American faces, English-speaking
shopkeepers, and a very friendly atmosphere. Built around two open courtyards filled with umbrella-shaded tables, the two-story market sells just about every imaginable Mexican-made product. Frozen margaritas and Corona beer are in evidence everywhere, offering a chance to cool down after several hours in the stores. Most shops have no air conditioning, even though summer
days often top 100 degrees. Open daily.
You don't get a chance to bargain here, so be content with the fact that you're buying the finest jewelry, furnishings, and clothing that Nuevo Laredo has to offer. This place is a favorite with both wealthy Mexicans and
South Texas shoppers looking for something above the usual mercado fare.
Located on Avenida Guerrero, three blocks past the International Bridge. Return to Nuevo Laredo Travel Guide and Laredo Travel Guide
