Independent and quite proud of it, Downtown Durango enjoys a wide variety of unique retail stores and galleries.

Capitalizing on one of the town's signature features, the gift shops at the Durango & Silverton Depot offer souvenir railroad treasures large and small, plus clothing, model trains and even the D&SNG's custom railroad china. New this year is a compact desk calendar (easily slid into a carry-on) featuring custom photographs to bring back memories of the excursion to Silverton.

Durango is today a contemporary mountain town, but does revel in its Wild West heritage. "Look" the part of a cowboy or a City Slicker (parts of the movie "City Slickers" were filmed in Durango), with leather coats or vests, silver belt buckles or hats available throughout town, or enjoy Durango "chic" at the distinctive boutiques such as the trendy Out of the Blue. Accent any "look" with custom jewelry from Taylor Raymond Jewelers or Jewelry Works.

As Durango is a thriving arts community, galleries are plentiful, showcasing the fine artists and photographers who have captured the essence of the region in their various art forms. Each gallery has discovered its niche, from the contemporary, more urban works at Ellis Crane and lush watercolors of Karyn Gabaldon Fine Arts, to the striking pieces at Sorrel Sky and contemporary Native American and Western art at Toh-Atin.

Sampling the "tastes of Durango" is an unmatched treat, as the town is home to a variety of cottage food companies. One of Durango's favorites is Honeyville, its factory store located on north Hwy 550, though the honeys, jellies, jams and more are available at retailers throughout the region. Durango Coffee Company features these and a number of locally manufactured products (and a wondrous array of cooking treasures), as well as locally roasted and organic, fair trade coffees and teas.

Relaxing well after playing or working hard is typically Durango-so, indulge in a massage or spa treatment, or discover the sensual lotions and personal gifts at the Spaaah Shop & Day Spa. And that "treasure" from the town? Trinkets and Treasures may be your ultimate destination.

To aid in a fun-filled exploration of Downtown, the Durango Business Improvement District has produced a complimentary locator guide. Find it at local hotel lobbies or the Visitor's Kiosk in the 700 block of Main Ave.
