We drove here from Tucson in about 2 hours through the Sonora dessert. We parked on the USA side of the border and walked to the entry point. We then wal;ked around the streets shopping.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Nice for shopping
Cons:You are shadowed by sale people all the time from store to store.
In a nutshell:Close to Tucson and the border
