About What's good to visit in El Paso TX

What's good to visit in El Paso TX?
Cause of work I'll be in El Paso for some time, and my wife will be visiting me. I'd like to know of nice places to visit. We don't drink or go out dancing, I'd appreciatte info about theme parks, museums, places to visit outdoors, maybe woods, just safe woods not the kind of the blair witch, he, just kidding. Oh, and places not too expensive. Thanks!!! Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm from Mexico so ceramics and Juarez aren't really an attraction for my wife. Are there places to camp? IMPORTANT, IF THERE ARE PLACES NEARBY EL PASO THAT CAN BE VISITED PLEASE MENTION THEM TOO. (NOT IN MEXICO CAUSE I KNOW THERE)

Answer 1 :
You can buy cowboy boots and made in Mexico items (ceramics, blankets, etc.) in downtown El Paso. Contact their visitors bureau for museum info. El Paso never really struck me as a touristy city, but I am sure that you can find things to do. There is a national park just east of the city. You can also visit Juarez, but it is often recommended that you NOT drive there (you can drive to downtown El Paso, park and then walk across the border). Also try to visit Juarez early in the day so you can get back home before dark.
Answer 2 :
Theres Viva El Paso,Wyler aerial tramway, Museums downtown, Tom Lea Park for hiking, Western Playland amusement park and lots more. Pick up the el paso phonebook and there is a lot more.
