Shop for Native American Crafts at Hubbell Trading Post
The Hubbell Trading Post, located less than an hour from Canyon de Chelly National Monument, is the oldest continually running trading post in the American Southwest. The Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site is located on Highway 191, north of Chambers, and has an exhibit center near Ganado, Arizona. It is regarded as a cultural crossroads between the Navajo and the settlers who came to the area to trade. When it first opened in 1878, this successful trading post served as a link between the Navajo Nation and the rest of the world, showcasing Western culture, tradition, and artwork.
Hubbell Trading Post has a great selection of genuine Navajo rugs and other Southwest American Indian arts and crafts. After shopping, visit the Visitor Center to see exhibits on the Hubbell family and the history of trade in the region.
There are also ranger-led tours that will take you behind the scenes of the Hubbell home, as well as self-guided tours that will allow you to get up and personal with the homestead's sheep, poultry, and horses. You might even catch a glimpse of a demonstration weaver in action.
