Coyoacan Artesans Market

Coyoacan Market is a weekly must-see event for every visitor to this part of Mexico City. It is a great place to while away an afternoon browsing the wide variety of goods on offer. If you're looking to do a bit of shopping you'll be spoilt for choice with everything from jewellery to artwork, textiles, and ceramics on offer. It's also a great place to buy souvenirs and gifts for people back home without the hefty price tag of similar items in more touristy parts of town.

It's a good place for people watching also, as many local people come here to sit at the tables of the many cafés and bars. There are also often traditional Mexican dance and music groups performing.

The large number of food stalls at Coyoacan Market makes for a perfect traditional lunch. Whether you feel like quesadillas, tacos, or a burrito, it is all homemade and delicious.
