A good look at the vast western land of Texas. Also the antique shops and little coffee shops are great. The cattle auction is very interesting. Driving around was enough to understand how people live in this area.

I wanted to travel down this piece of the original Route 66. I found many antique shops (Katz I stopped at-loads of memories) and restaurants. This is a glimpse into the past.

We found this area by accident and were so glad we did. They have tried to keep the area as close to the time period as possible. There are a lot of used and antique stores there, but they do have some great dining places. Would recommend you park up and get out and walk about and chat with the store owners, as they are all very friendly.

We hit this area on a Sunday. Not such a good day. Most all the shops were closed so we didn't get out to stroll. Maybe another time would have been better but didn't see the thrill here. It was hard to find. Keep your eyes on the signs and don't rely on your GPS. The area is located on 6th west of downtown.

Was there last March. Kinda cool, but it'd be better if they built up the area around it. This is in the middle of nowhere and you pull off the road. Doesn't even have a parking lot, and yet people come to see it. I think the city could make much more of it!

Talked about a Route 66 road trip ever since watching Disney's "Cars" movie. Went to Amarillo, and was excited to finally get there. The excitement faded when we found that it was a not a broad area and not bustling with a lot of shops and entertainment. I wasn't expecting the Vegas strip or anything, but I did envision seeing more and oohing over interesting niche places there. We found a neat burger restaurant with a juke box, walked around eating ice cream, and reminisced in a record shop. The kids liked the experience. It was just a shorter visit than we had planned. Spend some money here so businesses will reinvest in the area. It's a great part of history that would be a tragedy to let fade away entirely.

In 2007 we drove 8,000 miles round trip through the American Southwest. Stopping in Amarillo, specifically the Route 66 Historic District, was a highlight of the trip. My favorite thing was a poem that had been found in a boarding house in 1948 and someone painted it into a sign. I think it is nice to have a place like this that is real rather than a theme park edition or recreation.

On a recent trip to Amarillo I had some time off to learn a little more about the famous Route 66 3 years after having driven it in 2011. Visited all of the shops and picked up a few souvenir's and great discussions with shop owners about this great attraction in America. These people love talking to visitors and especially Australians. They think we talk funny. I got news for them. Rated 9/10.

Disappointed that most of the shops and restaurants were closed on Mondays since that's the day we blew through town. Much of the Rt66 history has disappeared, save a few signs, and we found that incredibly disappointing. But as a whole, the shops that were open were fun and had some interesting stuff.

Amarillo...we really enjoyed the antique/junk shops with reasonable pricing and the people were really nice.

Like I said, I grew up in this area, and this was the first time I have driven down what we used to call 6th street, I about 20 years. The City of Amarillo is trying to make the area into a hip area. I was pleased to see that. Is it there yet, not quite, but it is coming. There are a lot of neat looking places to eat, and bars I would like to have explored if we had more time. As someone else noted there are a lot of nice antique stores to explore. My wife enjoyed them. Keep at it, Amarillo, Greenville Ave. in Dallas did not get where it is over night.

Just nice to drive up and down, stopped in an authentic café for lunch, the longest continually open under one family.

It is somewhat funky but not very long in distance. Spend the time at the local restaurants and bars, take some pictures, but don't expect anything other than what it is-part of the Route 66 experience.
