Introducing Nogales

Like its border-city cousins Tijuana, Ciudad Juárez and Nuevo Laredo, Nogales is a major transit point between the US and Mexico; as a result, it’s a zoo of money-exchange houses, pharmacies, cheesy curio shops and low-rent bars catering mostly to gringos on weekend binges – the kind of place where trouble finds you. ‘You looking for something that’s hard to find?’ is basically a greeting here. It suits fine as a day trip, but if you’re looking to go further afield in Sonora, there’s no real reason to linger here.
