If you want to find a variety of specialty shops while getting a taste of Amarillo's past, check out the Historic Route 66 downtown. The shops usually don't stay open late, so starting your shopping excursion either just after 10 am or before 5 pm is a good idea. Aside from these great little stores, you'll enjoy the rustic architecture that harkens back to a time when there were horses in the streets instead of cars. Even with it's modern update this area has retained that dusty, old-time feeling and a lot of character that you'll enjoy while shopping the streets of this district.

If you want to see the historic Palo Duro Canyon the way the cowboys did hundreds of years ago, then the Old West Stables of Amarillo can make that a reality for you. They offer trail rides and guided tours on horseback that will give you a truly unforgettable perspective of one of the state's most impressive natural wonders. And since you'll be riding through on horseback, you'll get to take in every detail of what is often referred to as "The Grand Canyon of Texas."
