A step through the first grand arched entry way into this authentic
style village gives you a strong feel of Mexico, Spain, or perhaps Italy. A quick trip
to another country without leaving the United States, count me in!
Tlaquepaque Arts & Crafts Village has been a landmark
since the 1970's and is basically the downtown area of Sedona.
Art galleries, unique boutiques, and restaurants are throughout
the village offering upscale shopping and dining.
Cobble stone walkways lead to beautifully landscaped court
yards lined with vine covered Stucco walls. The detailed iron work, massive columns,
colorful flowers, and unique sculptures are amazing!
Brightly colored Mexican tiles give a pop of color to many of the stairways and water features.
It is a truly a unique experience to explore the village. I
would highly recommend a walk through the area even if you are not interested
in shopping.
If you are into photography, this place is a photographer’s
dream! Well, unless it is crowded and raining like it was on the day we were
there!
