Ajijic, a small idyllic town in Mexico, is the perfect setting to enjoy a quiet and relaxing holiday. Enjoy a night of lively music in the plaza of this picturesque town or enjoy a stroll along the lakeside path. Visit the colorful Chapala handicrafts market, or relax and enjoy lunch and a beautiful view at the Beergarden restaurant by the pier. If you’re traveling with children, take them to Christiania Park, right next to the market. At the park, they can play on the expansive lawn or on the playground. Take a day trip to the Casacadas de Agua, a favorite spot with the locals and a great place to spend with family. Climb the waterfalls or swim in sparkling pools at the base of the falls. Find a shady spot to enjoy the lunch you packed at your holiday rental or try a local delicacy at one of the many small restaurants in the area.

Just a nice quiet place to walk along the water and spend some quality time with yourself or others. If you need more stimulation or just a bite to eat the city rolls out for you just a block off the Malecon.

...AND MORE! This is ”the place” to get your FRESH fruits and vegetables. And all at very reasonable prices! (Mexican Pesos) There also have many different wares for sale. Clothing, paintings, carvings, fresh meat (chicken), and all the beans, lentils, and candies you could ever imagine. This market is held weekly and is the only place to buy! Just don’t faint when you see the prices you'll pay compared to back in USA/CANADA! Best to come with smaller denomination $ (lots of them????) Come, buy & enjoy! You won't be disappointed!!

Growing up in Chicago I had three different cemeteries surrounding my house. I played inside of these cemeteries by myself and with friends and was fascinated by the history of the sides and those buried in the grounds. Going to places like New Orleans and seeing the above ground burial plots and the celebration of life passed within these places always peeked my imagination. Going to a Mexican cemetery in Ajijic made me realize even more why I love Mexico, it’s culture, and people. They celebrate life and death equally and respect those that have long passed preserving the memories and the spirit of those who came before them!

This is a beautiful church and has lovely morning bells that may be heard all over town. At the very end of the street/highway (Guadalajara/Chapala highway). Beautifully decorated at Los Dias De Los Meuretes, Oct 31st - Nov 2nd. This is a very attractive architectural and religious gem at the lakes edge and all visitors should take a peek at it if at all possible.

Barbara's has been around for 29 years now. We may have outgrown the name Bazaar as we offer fine art, high end mid century furniture, the best of kitchen accessories, decorations with class and a selection of Oriental rugs unmatched in the area. Along with all this fine stuff we offer Tupperware, old stainless pots with copper bottoms ( a big seller), old records and down right 'junk' that someone always falls in love with, a small selection of better vintage and name label clothing and accessories. We also carry a variety of architectural objects, like antique doors, iron window guards, stone detailing off old buildings, bronze garden art. You name it we have it or have had it or will have it!

You see many, many interesting things here, from statues to photographs of old people from Ajijic, to children playing and singing, to real, good musicians playing swing. Both Mexicans and foreiigners walk around calmly or sit on the multiple benches under the trees or at the restaurants, bars and cafés. I was surprised that, as in all over the country, there were street dogs, but they look well fed. I asked and people told me that everybody feeds the street dogs in Ajijic. There is an animal shelter founded by an American, but the dogs that were taken there used to be free and prefer to live on the streets!
