Ciudad Acuña
Del Rio's sister city, directly across the Mexico -
U. S. border, is the best border city in Mexico. Unique merchandise, wonderful
food and a welcoming atmosphere await you.
Just across the International Bridge, Ciudad Acuña's
charm begins at Calle Hidalgo (Hidalgo Street), the main avenue in the
shopping district. This area offers world-famous cuisine, leather goods,
gift shops, and dancing at nightclubs and discos. For those who prefer
the outdoors, Lake Amistad offers fishing on both sides of the border.
The region just to the south of town, known as Zaragoza, is home to dozens
of hunting ranches.
Ciudad Acuņa hosts a range of events throughout
the year, including a motorcycle convention, an international fishing
tournament, Cinco de Mayo festivities, Mexican Independence Day celebrations,
and the International Parade commemorating Ciudad Acuña's friendship
with Del Rio.
