On our last day in Guadalajara, my special someone and I decided to do a bit of shopping. We got a…read moretip from the hotel staff about this place, so we made our way over here. The route here took less than 20 minutes by uber. We were dropped off in this small street, that intersects this fine shopping center. Because it was a weekday, there was not a lot of foot traffic throughout this place, which was actually a good thing. We noticed tons of shops that we'd find back home in LA, to include high end brands. There were many fine eateries, as well as fast food options on the upper levels of the mall. Since we already had food back at the hotel, we decided to eat something small at Carl's Jr. We shopped at Palacio de Hierro, which is similar to Nordstrom in quality. The place was kept immaculately clean, and the staff throughout the center was very nice and accomodating. After getting done shopping, we hailed an uber to head back to the hotel. I'm glad that we made the time to come here. It's a nice shopping center thats on par with Del Amo Fashion Center in LA's south bay. If you have great taste in fashion, or just need to pick something up for an event, this is a good option in the Guadalajara metro area.

This mall is beautiful and you will find most high end stores and delicious restaurants here. We…read morespent an afternoon here during our visit and it was a lot of fun. There is a hotel attached and the mall is huge so it sprawls across two sections. I would recommend eating at the seafood place across the street.

Midtown in Guadalajara is an open shopping center that has well known and luxury brands…read more From Sketchers to Rolex, there are many shopping options including a certified Lego Store. The dinning options are on the 3rd floor and under Midtown is Fresko. The Food at Midtown is okay. The Kiosks on the 3rd floor are okay and are your typical mall offerings, fries, tacos, burgers, and the likes. There are some restaurants and fast food options. TIP 1: Do not skip on Fresko. Make sure to check it out. If you are staying multiple days at the Hilton, you can get some daily staples like bottled waters, snacks, and other things if you've forgotten to pack them TIP 2: The food court area has arondeck chairs and lounge areas to watch sports or movies. Its a great way to relax. The drop off and pick up area can get congested for Taxis and RideShares so make sure you are ready as the pickups come fast and know the car, license plate, and driver. If you are driving, there is valet. This is especially helpful if you are staying at the Hilton. Midtown is not a tourist destination but brand destination and if you're into that, then its there for you.

She wanted to go shopping, and this became one of our several stops in Plaza Andares. El Palacio de Hierro is on par with Nordstroms back home. The store is nice, very well presented, and has an extensive selection of clothing and other items. The staff here is pleasant, and very attentive. They were able to guide us to exactly what we were looking for. While the girlfriend found the items she needed, I browsed the men's section. Their clothing selection is great, especially if you like darker hues like I do. Some brands you'll recognize from stores back in the US, and some you won't. For the latter, I've found quality in them, to include some brown dress shoes that I get complements on to this day. If you're in town in Guadalajara, and are looking to do some shopping, give this place a try.

Pasaje Independencia is basically the main shopping street that cuts through the old village. The street is closed off to cars and has arts and craft shops, restaurants, musicians and local artisans set up to cater to visitors in a safe area away from traffic. They usually have the street decorated based on holiday or artist theme so the decor is always rotating (they had giant ceramic pics the last time I was there). The rotating decor makes it a selfie takers paradise and there's something for just about everyone; shoppers, photographers, foodies people watchers, art aficionados. There's an old cathedral at the town square and sometimes there are dancers, voladores de papantla (aerialist religious ceremony that's protected by UNESCO), festivals, food and lots of things going on all the time. Tip: It's fun to look at all the Frida Kahlo stuff, but remember there are many indigenous artisans making beautiful things that are unique to this specific area. You can buy a Frida shirt anywhere but you can't buy hand beaded Huichol art in other parts of Mexico. What you spend your money determines whether places like this stay unique or end up looking exactly the same.
