Tlaquepaque Arts & Shopping Village

A Sedona landmark since the 1970's, Tlaquepaque treats visitors and local residents to an exceptional collection of galleries, shops and dining establishments. Named after the picturesque Guadalajara, Tlaquepaque construction began in 1971 with the creation of the wall along the highway. Giant sycamores and stately cottonwoods dapple the light in the courtyards, encouraging the visitors to meander from one courtyard to the next. While meandering stop by and view our Chapel on property - and perhaps you might get a glimpse of a wedding and reception. Tlaquepaque hosts several community events throughout the year. Tlaquepaque is a place that visitors return to again and again - to look and wander, to sample and buy, to eat, drink and refresh body and soul. Visit us soon and discover the magic yourself!

First of all, it is pronounced T-La-Keh-Pah-Keh, which means "best of everything." Which is very appropriate. Tlaquepaque Arts and Crafts Village is an enduring outdoor market featuring art galleries, craft shops, cobblestone paths and decorative arches. Located at 336 State Route l79 in Sedona, Arizona, on the banks of Oak Creek, it has been a Sedona landmark since the 1970s. Open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily, it features over 50 specialty shops and art galleries and five restaurants. It is fashioned after a traditional Mexican village with vine covered stucco walls, wrought iron, stonework, patterned tiles, patios, courtyards, fountains, overhanging balconies, cobblestone walkways and arched entryways, even a chapel, designed as a place of serenity for meditation and contemplation. You've never seen a shopping mall like it. Among the most popular destinations are the chapel, the Rowe Fine Art Gallery, with a magnificent sycamore tree twisting skyward through the roof, and the El Rincon Restaurante Mexicano, a Sedona icon for over three decades. Even if you never learn how to pronounce the name properly, you won't forget your shopping experience at Tlaquepaque.

I've been here countless times and they always seems to get better. The service is over the top and the food is amazing. The sleeping rooms are very nice and the golf is out of the world. Another good part is that Kierland Commons is right across the street where there is tons of shopping and restaurants.

The Pavilions at Talking Stick

Reviewed By L4430FCmanuelm - Puerto Penasco, Mexico

My wife and I went to the Road House cinemas for lunch. We were not interested in going to the movies. We found it interesting they have a restaurant and bar just at the entrance of the theaters where you could, eventually wait while your favorite movie starts. They also have a full bar. Nothing out of the ordinary. The food was OK. They offer outside and indoors seating.
