La Chinesca: Born of a lack of essential ingredients, Mexicali-style Chinese food has become a fusion cuisine all its own. Try it here, in the only true Chinatown in all of Mexico.
Cañon de Guadalupe: Hot springs in the Sierra de Juárez above the San Felipe desert reward backcountry explorers willing to drive the washboard access road.

Valle de los Cardones Gigantes: Between San Felipe and Puertecitos, the Valle de los Gigantes is an ideal place to snap postcard-perfect images of the world’s tallest cactus species, some of which live to be hundreds of years old.
