The most active border in the world
Tijuana was founded on 1889, and according to some historians its name comes
from the indigenous word "Ticuan". Nevertheless, also is thought that it is a decomposition of the name "Tía Juana", a pioneering
farm of this zone.
The geographic location of the city and the ample work unfolded by their inhabitants, most
of them from other places of Mexico, have conferred it a preponderant place in the national and international
scope.
Not in vain it is known as the most visited city in the world, standing
out by its tourist, industrial, commercial and services development.
Tijuana's main attractions are:
The Tijuana Cultural Center, the Avenida Revolución (purchase of handcrafts and places for entertainment), the House
of the Culture, the Morelos State Park, the Fronton Jai-Alai, the Monumental Bullring and Toreo de Tijuana.
