The largest traditional Mexican market in town (excluding the weekly Tianguis). There are fruits, vegetables, meat, and more, and of course lots of food stalls to grab some lunch. It should be a regular stop for locals picking up supplies, and tourists should check it out along with the adjoining Mercado de Artesanías.
