Juarez, Mexico!
Welcome, you
have reached the only balanced
source of information about Juarez, Mexico currently available
in the English language, authored by an American who has lived in Juarez among the
people and has never once been compensated by any of the merchants
or institutions featured here or by the Mexican government.
Whatever you may have heard, Juarez, Mexico is full of good
people, interesting attractions, fine restaurants, a fascinating
history, and very impressive shopping values.
The truth about Ciudad Juarez is here on these pages...

Thanks to Marina Cervantes and Planos
de Cd. Juarez there are now
area maps and a detail street map for every location
in the guide. You can even get a copy of their street
map
right here and plan your trip in advance. Their
map is the only map of Juarez, Mexico which is faithfully
updated every year and has the endorsement of the Juarez municipal
government.
Juarez, Mexico is located just across the
border from El Paso, Texas. Together the two cities
form the one of the largest international border communities
on earth.
Ciudad Juarez is the largest city in the State
of Chihuahua and the 5th (some say 4th) largest city in all
of Mexico. With a population of almost 2 million people,
this city is no sleepy little border town. Whether you are
looking for good
food, shopping
values, or an exciting
nightlife, you can find it here.

I say The Juarez Mexico Travel Guide is the
only balanced source of information about Juarez Mexico currently
available in the English language because the city has been
demonized by the American press as the "City of Death", when
the whole truth is much more complicated.
Every effort to bring the crime issue and
the tragic reality of the serial killings here into perspective
has been made on these pages: The
People, Your
Safety, and Great
Evil Torments a Great People. Please read
them before you make up your mind about Juarez, Mexico.
 Follow
me, and you will see not only the finest the city has to offer
but also the out of the way places only a frequent visitor
can discover. See not only the 5-star
hotels and finest
restaurants but also some good
value hotels and the little window in the side of a building
where for as little as $3 a friendly seņora will serve you
the same delicious food she serves her children.
The guide will show you everything you need
to know about how to enjoy your stay, everything from the
great things to see to insights into the
people, culture, and history. A walking tour of
the downtown
historical sights is included.
You will also find emergency
contact numbers, directions to the Tourism
Office (where you can obtain more information), tips on
dealing
with Spanish, information about nightlife,
shopping,
and transportation.
The site is very rich in photographs. Enjoy... |
