In addition, more than 350 retailers, gift shops, cafes, antique shops and art galleries can be found in downtown Walla Walla. The area is known for growing sweet onions, but there has also been an explosion in the wine industry over the last ten years. Walla Walla is quickly becoming a popular destination for wine connoisseurs, with several wineries receiving top reviews from various wine publications. Blues and jazz are also popular in Walla Walla. You can catch a concert almost every weekend, and the area's three colleges offer plays, concerts, sponsor lectures and gallery tours on a regular basis.
