It's got a little bit of everything, mostly for the home and garden, all of it quality merchandise. From its rather small entryway, the store opens up into a cavernous experience.

They also have a large collection of Alebrijes, the Mexican sculptures of fantastical (fantasy/mythical) creatures, all hand-made and all with the wonderful detail in colour and paint that makes these sculptures so popular with the locals and tourists alike.
