After lunch, walk around in the Tlaquepaque Arts and Crafts Village. There are many galleries, shops and restaurants, and it also full of activities, making it a great destination for both residents and visitors.

When you are finished at Tlaquepaque, take a quick drive down the road to The Hudson for dinner. There are inside and outside seating options, both with great views. The food here is typical American bar food, with some vegan options. Prices here average around $23.
