BTW- this is not a Mexican city. History teacher without knowledge of Geography.

It was a Mexican city and many, many people in this town can trace their roots back to Mexico.

Mexico has always been a popular tourist spot and many people admire and enjoy Mexican culture. However, because of the violence in recent years, there are many Americans who cannot enjoy Mexico. That is why El Paso should market itself as a destination that gives tourists a taste of Mexican culture without having to actually go to Mexico.
