Nogales 1.7 Historic Area

And if the warp is industry, the weave is people. The city was a cultural vessel that embraced Asian, European, Mexican, Anglo-Saxon, Middle Eastern, and Black influences and, today, still lends depth to the tapestry of Nogales. The historic area of Nogales has a culture all of its own.  Travelers can experience the diverse culture and heritage of the Asian, European, Mexican, Anglo-Saxon, Middle Eastern, and Black influences that was embraced by the past and current inhabitats.  This historical area still offers a glimpse of the past as well as lends depth to the tapestry of Nogales today.
