Chamizal National Memorial

Came here to hear The Lonely Boys band. I’ve heard some of their music like «Heaven» «Velvet Sky» and others so decided to put up with the crowd I knew was going to be there. This park has a stage where the band played. Food trucks and beer was being sold. The park rangers were very serious about their job as they patrolled the park. It started raining before the concert started. i skillfully pulled out my umbrella and proceeded to stay dry when out of nowhere this random lady literally slumps under my umbrella where I was sitting. I was shocked at first and then thought well maybe she just wants to stay dry as I noticed the only thing in her hand was her purse so I had some compassion for her until she was wanting to sit on my lap! I asked her what she was doing and that she couldn’t give me a lap dance, I mean sit on my lap! lol. Anyways she walked away and that was that. The park is nice and clean. Bring the family! Oh and look out for the random lap dancing wanting to stay dry lady!

Nice place to jog, walk, play, get some fresh air, and watch the world go by in two countries at the same time. Sure seems to be a busy place, but there’s plenty of parking.

This is one of those museums that doesn’t rely on gimmicks, and yet manages to be completely engaging. There are both Spanish and English translations on the history of the war and the peace treaty, as well as obelisks and a cute park where a few couples were having picnics.
To feel like you’re really immersed in history, this is a fantastic opportunity to get as close as one can to the border and read the carefully curated collection. Wonderful, knowledgeable staff on hand to answer your questions, and a fantastic learning experience.
