One word, Masks, there is probably not a place in mexico city or the whole country or even world…read morethat has as many masks as this place (for sale), because I'm sure someone has a large collection. This place orders to native producers of masks around the country, they have masks made from top quality wood and also cheaper, no single mask is equal to another. Family owned, even though its a business they treat each mask as part of a personal, collection, if lucky you will find the great nephew of the founder, although he seems to have a serious character he will get to the info once you show interest. Although its not tricky to get there, people will not recommend to go there on your own specially if you arent familiar with the area, i recommend to take a taxi or an uber. A must if you are into art, masks and all that jazz

I have been coming to this city for over ten years, and today was the very first time when I had…read morethe opportunity to come and check this place out. This crafts market is located in the central part of the city, and it's near a court of other food markets. The market itself has well over 100 individual stores, and each store has some different to offer. I came in at around noon, and many of the shops that I walked passed, encouraged me to come and see what they have. There are so many near things to choose from that I decided to return this weekend when I have some money in my pocket. I saw some really cool authentic hand made plates that my wife would love. The prices here are also fair, especially considering the time it takes to make some of these pieces. Apart from the awesome crafts, I think that this would be a great way to support the community here.

Really wonderful market- lots of stalls w similar items but really pleasant shopkeepers- not pushy,…read moreno one hollering at you and very fair prices. If you don't speak Spanish and don't want to haggle, look for the stores with posted prices- there are plenty. Culturally, this is not a market where you haggle/try to cut the prices much- so don't go in thinking an item listed at 500 pesos can be bought for 100. Be respectful, much of this is made by the sellers, some working right onsite. Loads of beautiful stuff, from jewelry to tiled mirrors (mine made it home safely!) and alebrijes. Many things you won't find at the airport stores (though it has some decent items), so this market is worth the trip. I brought cash but many stores/booths accept cards here.
