Who wouldn't want a piece of Mexico to call their own? Souvenirs, jewelry, traditional Mexican clothing, original artwork, and Mexican handicrafts can found in the many stores throughout Zihuatanejo-Ixtapa. The main area of shopping in Zihuatanejo can be found in Centro where there are small jewelry stores, dress boutiques, leather goods, and souvenir shops scattered amongst the downtown restaurants, bars, and businesses. The walkable area is bordered by Playa Principal and
la cancha (aka
el zocolo or the basketball courts), Benito Juarez and the central Mercado, Avenida Morelas with the Elektra electronics store, and Calle Cinco de Mayo with the Artisan's Market.
Ixtapa has its own small
mercado with artist and souvenir stalls on the main drag upon entering town. Then there are a series of small malls along the same strip with shops that sell high-end clothing, jewelry, t-shirts, Mexican decor, and beach wear. Store rents are higher in Ixtapa and prices reflect this.
