Despite Mexicali being a business and industrial hub, it has a notable hospitality side. Locals joke that the city captured the sun owing to high desert temperatures in the summer. Nonetheless, thousands visit Mexicali every year for camping, mountain climbing, hiking, and off-road adventure. La Chinesca or Chinatown has a profound Chinese influence, owing to its cultural link to China. Visit the place and sample cuisine and artifacts from the East. Cathedral Guadalupe is a must-see attraction, with the best time of visit being during Christmas. At Canon de Guadalupe, an isolated desert oasis, you can indulge in a mud bath, sit in the sun for a while before scrubbing it off in a shower. Shop, and watch a movie at Plaza Galerias Del Valle. You will never run out of things to do. For a comfortable stay, check this list of the top Airbnb vacation rentals in Mexicali, Mexico.
