Shopping on Front Street – Old Town Temecula Style

Step into the Old West, and Take Some of it Home With You
The appeal of Old Town Temecula is renowned, it’s no Disney version of the Old West, but truly a voyage in time to a land of saloons, mercantiles and wooden storefronts. But don’t let that fool you, the shopping is anything but old fashioned! Many collectors make the trip just to go antiquing in Temecula’s famous downtown antique stores and curio shops. Here, you can find everything from wood-burning stoves and old kitchenware to beautiful wood furniture, jewelry, knick knacks and works of art. Temecula has plenty to please contemporary home designers as well with a European import store, clock store, jewelry stores, music shop and even a leather and motorcycle gear store. If you are looking for clothes with personality, there’s no need to head to the big chain stores at the mall, you’ll find something special in one of Temecula’s many boutiques – when you buy a hat, purse or pair of shoes from one of these you can be sure to not see the same one being worn by everyone and their grandma all over your hometown!

One of the greatest aspects of shopping in Temecula is the wonderful variety of crafts and one-of-a-kind art. The area is inspirational, some take that inspiration and make great wine, others make beautiful art or handicrafts that you won’t find anywhere else. Just as the area’s unique conditions produce unique wines, they also produce the motivation for a very personal interpretation of the valley’s energy, of it’s personality and the wave of emotion that its majestic panoramas induce.

Temecula knows that when you come to visit you want to bring back a little something for those who couldn’t come, and Old Town steps up to the plate with a plethora of great gift shops where you can buy wonderful handcrafted soaps and bath accessories, blown glass, beads, silver pieces, supplies for the hobbyist in your life, extraordinary Christmas ornaments and even an authentic Scandinavian shop where, amongst other items, you will find uniquely Scandinavian crystal and pewter pieces.
