    Whenever we travel to Mexico, we always allow ourselves a morning or two to explore the local mercado. Most mercado are indoors but some are outdoors. Mercados are where locals come to get what they need for the day. Yes shopping very day. It's not what's done in the USA, but a lot of cultures shop daily. Their fridges are about half the size of your typical fridge / freezer found at Lowes or Sears. You'll found produce, cheese, meats, fruits, spices, and other items. Some vendors sell trinkets and electronics. For the newbie shoppers it's expected to haggle. Don't be afraid. If you're a local or regular, you would get a discount so don't be afraid to haggle. If you look like a tourist, more than likely, you're going to get a inflated quote so there's not harm in haggling just don't be insulting with your offer back. I marvel and quite enjoy this type pf shopping. There's something romantic about it. Making your list, going to see Rafael at the produce stand to get your veggies then see Marta for your fruits and then going to see Carmen for your meats and cheeses. Only buying what you need for the day's meals is so comfortable for me and when I return to the USA it's so foreign for me to fill up my cart at WINCO with two weeks worth of groceries. It doesn't matter where you visit, but make a point to explore and visit a Mercado or open air market. Let your mind wander and be in awe of the amount of hustle it takes to be a local vendor and appreciate their craft and knowledge.

    This place was great! You had all types of traditional Mexican stands in the middle and shopping around the outside. While everything is slow here in Mexico in terms of service it gives you a second to slow life down and enjoy things around you. I came here daily j on n my trip to eat and get little chachies

    Yummy!

    An vast area for shopping all kinds. The food venders are extremely generous and friendly, and the price is so fair which reflects to the locals standard. Would love to go there again and again! Guanajuato, México

    Hot times ahead.

    Extensive indoor market, good food stalls and great food shopping. We scored some amazing chili powders from a spice merchant whose great great grandfather opened the stall in the 1920's. Recommended

    On the 2nd level looking downward.

    See all

    As you walk in the first stand to the right their carnitas was delicious. The third stand to the left they sell delicious cafe de la olla.

    Worth checking out especially if you want to buy a trinket or a little gift for someone. Definitely try & eat inside.

    Plenty of choices. Historical building and nice people. I'd recommend coming here before going elsewhere.
