From Grau, it's about a 10-minute walk up a very steep hill to reach Plaza Recoleta, but the views from up here make the short hike completely worthwhile. The Museum of Indigenous Art is up here too, and is definitely one of Sucre's most interesting museums. There's also a cafe

La Recoleta

You can learn about the history of Sucre when you stop by La Recoleta. Discover the area's museums and cathedral.

La Recoleta
One of the better Bolivian markets I've visited, this one spreads out over an entire block in central Sucre. You can buy anything here from chillies to corkscrews to horse's heads! What I love about this place is that you walk into the fruit and veg section and the #market vendors will slice you off a piece of their produce for you to try. If you decide you want to buy, they'll ask you when you plan to eat the avocado/custard apple/mango, so that they can select one at exactly the right level of ripeness for you. Now that's service! There are also mini cafes/restaurants inside where you can get ridiculously cheap sit-down meals and smoothies.

Sucre Central Market

You can find the perfect gifts to bring home at Sucre Central Market during your stay in Sucre. Discover the area's museums and cathedral.
