I actually like this market are a a lot, even as a foreigner. I've come here more than 50 times…read moreover the years, and it's mostly to buy good and inexpensive clothing. They have everything though, from clothes and shoes, to food and party. It's interesting strolling through here on a Sunday afternoon, how many people are cheleando en the small local outside Nars. I e never encountered any problems personally, although I've witnessed things go down. Some lady got her necklace ripped off, and another man was laying on the street after an altercation.

Do not mix it up with Mercado de Coyoacán (an actual market with cultural goods and local eats). This is an ultra high-end mall with some really cool statues and art sculptures, fancy departments stores, some nice restaurants, toy stores, clothing stores, and more. It's multi-level and semi-outdoors in some areas. Some high end stores here included Cartier and Hugo Boss. The bad: We came to this mall by accident at first because our Uber driver took us to the wrong spot. We ended up browsing it anyway before going to our actual destination. The interesting: Plaza Centro Coyoacán was the old name but they closed a few years back and are now called Mitikah.

It's like a hidden Mexican pueblo in the middle of Mexico City. A perfect taste of culture religion…read moreart and delicious food.
