Tijuana is another border city in Mexico, located south of California. In addition to easily finding first-rate dentists in Tijuana, you can explore the lively bars and souvenir shops on Avenida Revolución, the city’s main street.
You can also explore the numerous landmarks. Do not miss the Centro Cultural Tijuana and Jai Alai Frontón palace or the lucha libre (wrestling) matches. A visit to the dentist will never be this interesting! You can also head to the city of Rosarito nearby to hit the sandy beaches.
Cancun
Cancun lies on the Yucatán Peninsula and borders the Caribbean Sea. The city is famous for its resorts, beaches and nightlife, and a popular spring break destination for college students.
Besides world-class dentists, the city offers a stunning combination of nightclubs, high-rise hotels, shops and restaurants.
