I have been to tijuana a few times and the city is growing fast, I see new buildings and businesses every time. As far as the safety goes… it’s just like almost every other city, some bad areas that should be avoided but other than that it’s fine.

Im a TJ native and i aprove this message

Dan's next video..."First Impressions of Hong Kong" 🤣

There are thousands of Americans in Tijuana It's just that they're not tourists They work in the San Diego area and they live in the Tijuana area

Loved this walking tour of Mexico City! Markets are such fun places to explore. 🛍🌮 New fan from Bangalore.

I just got back from there. I had plastic surgery though a company it was a good experience and they took very good care of me. I did a tour with a local guide. You did a great job with this video ❤

I have gotten fantastic dental work done in the border town of Los Algodones, which is near Yuma, Arizona. my $200 crowns were put in 6 years ago and and perfect! Small town that has tons of dentists with hundreds of US and Canadian clients every day. Bernal Dental and White Dental are 2 good choices.

oh! that's nice that you visited our country! I really Enjoy all your videos to much ! take care please where aver place that you will visit I am your fam! with love Alma

Tijuana is Mexico’s roughest looking big city. Rough around the edge, BUT it is so freaking fun. Go with my family alllll the time and I’m never bored. I’ve been there 1,000 times and will continue to go many more times. Never a dull moment in Tijuana.

As always Dan, I appreciate your comments as you visit interesting and out of the ordinary places ... I've never really thought too much about Tijuana until now after watching your walking tour of the city.Gracias

That shoe shine stand is from the old Tijuana ,1962.

Thank you for this video. I haven’t been to Tijuana since 1997 or 98 and I used to love it over there at night time. And I’ll never forget the bridge that you’re walking on in the video when we would go home to get back over into San Diego Well, you can only say so much in this comment section so thank you for this video watching from the big island of Hawaii.🤙🏿🤙🏿🤙🏿🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

I take the trolley to the San Ysidro crossing

Really insightful and considerate video, thanks!

Are you in TJ now? I'm from San Diego, where I currently live (and I also speak fluent Spanish); I've always liked TJ for many reasons, from hanging out with friends, shopping, eating, and even to going to the doctor & dentist for significantly cheaper than over here, in California. Just as with any place, we know where to avoid and where to not go, and don't ever be persuaded, coaxed, or otherwise allow both feet "off of the ground", so to speak. Do those things and you'll be fine anywhere. I wouldn't do those things in my normal everyday life anyway.

I stayed at the grande plaza hotel. Tijuana is amazing!

I had given up on YT, they had gotten so aggressive with the adds.
I come back to check in and I see you with touches of grey in your hair, but still putting out great videos with heart.                                                       Keep'em coming!🐢

That Plaza with the "Cat City" has been in that abandoned state for at least 20 years, if not more. Only the shops in the outskirts of the plaza seem to have stayed active. No idea how it was in the past, but ever since I can remember passing through there it's been like that. Unfortunate, since it's in such a good location, with lots of foot traffic (depending on the season).
Also, to answer a question from earlier; yeah, Februrary is not a time when you see many american tourists. Plenty of medical tourism all year round, though. Just like those Amish, which you tend to see a lot of near hospitals and clinics.

The port of entry that you crossed is the old one.  If you go by automobile, then yes you use that one.  But if you are crossing on foot, there is a much better port of entry called "Ped West".  This is west of the old entry point and is for pedestrian only.  It will drop you off much closer to the action.  This will avoid the long 25 minute walk you had to take.
