THINGS TO DO OR SEE IN ROSWELL👽
Alien Zone Store/ Photo Booths-8 minutes away
I honestly prefer this store over the famous UFO museum. This one is fun and has cool props while the other museum has too much information laid out that it seems overstimulating and boring. But maybe you might like it so try it out?! Any store or wall has alien murals so be on the look out-THEY'RE WATCHING YOU!

Best tortillas in town! I love their flour and corn tortillas. Now, why would you want tortillas you ask? Well, so you can eat them obvi! but for real,they are good to make burritos or even make into chips for chilaquiles! They also sell Mexican candy, sodas and you can even send money to Mexico if you have family that you send money to.
