The “Little” Mercado
In Nogales, Historic Main Street is a place filled with wonder from across the border and around the world.
Gold Route
Walk and Drive the Tracks of Time
The Gold Tour is designed to identify areas that otherwise might not be viewed because of the locations. Court Street climbs the hill south of the 1904 Courthouse. Many of the homes on Court Street are still owned by heirs of Nogales’ pioneer families. Marcus Park just east of the courthouse has elements of a Japanese garden. In December, the Christmas lights that adorn the period homes on Court Street are stunning.

Historic Ambos Nogales: Two Sister Cities Were One
At one time, Nogales, Arizona and Nogales, Sonora, were one big, relaxed two-nation border community. The urban fabric is now split in two, separated by an international border, yet the two communities, called Ambos Nogales, remain heavily reliant on each other. Ambos Nogales continues to share its families, cultures, heritages, economies and identities. The communities of Nogales, Arizona and Nogales, Sonora, México comprise the largest international border community in Arizona, with an estimated combined population exceeding 400,000 people.
