Tlaquepaque is the artsy shopping center of Sedona and being perfectly flat, it is an ideal attraction for the art-loving wheelchair traveler. One can almost get lost meandering through the many nooks and courtyards of Tlaquepaque; in one small corner is even a small church. Directories are available if there's something specific you are looking for; otherwise it's best to explore. The walkways are made up of a variety of cobble stone all for the the most part are tightly sealed to make the surface as even as possible.

The majority of shops located at Tlaquepaque finely display various art pieces ranging from paintings to blown glass, jewelry, sculptures, and windmills (below right photo). Many of the pieces are from local artists but there are others, including international ones. There is a second floor that one can access via elevators.

The importance of the Native American culture is present all over Arizona and is particularly sacred in Sedona. Therefore, you will also expect to find art and crafts that have been created by Native Americans as well as pieces from artists that have been inspired by these people. Setup as the decor around Tlaquepaque are statues, like of this young Native American woman or the warrior and travelers shown in the below photos.

If craving something on the healthier side, I would recommend the Secret Garden (above photos) if hungry for quality ingredients. Indoor and outdoor seating is also available and everything on the menu looked delicious including soups, salads, and sandwiches. There was also a fine selection of teas and coffees and pastries. Other places to dine at Tlaquepaque included a the Oak Creek Brewery & Grill located on the 2nd level (below middle photo) and a Mexican restaurant called El Ricon (below left photo), both with nice indoor and outdoor seating.
