The tradition of a ¨Public Mercado¨ was brought to our land by the Spanish Colonizers. At its time, the Mercado was not conceived as a closed precinct but as an activity, developed at the “Plaza Mayor” in the central area of the city. It was usually held on Saturdays or Sundays, the same days Religious Services were provided.

With our local English speaking guide, in this Mercado you will experience new flavors, colors and textures, expressions of our land. You will get to feel the Mercado’s vibe and socialize with local fruit and vegetable growers.
