Local markets are a great place to find some snacks and souvenirs, and to see a traditional side of Mexican life. Here are our tips for exploring them.
What a great overview of mercados! And love your suggestion about eating at the mercado. Still one fave lunch spot when in town is sitting at the lunch counter at Mercado 23 and having the most delicious tortas! Watching the older guy slice off the turkey with gusto, and then it making its way to the next steps and finally to the counter and us. Plus fun watching all the action there and sometimes customers are 2 deep. Always a good sign. Great post!
