Came mostly for the food, but the market itself has some interesting architecture and murals. So many different kinds of food vendors here, feels like you can spend a month here and still not try every stall. It's not touristy at all, as most of the customers seem to be local.

Typical Mexican market recently rebuilt. Huge food offer and brujeria supplies. Ground floor tamales and jugos are worth a visit.

So far, I’d rather stay in Mexico City and eat tacos.…

Like most Mercado’s, there are a variety of shops. Some very good food too. If you like shopping and going through things, this is a great place to do it.
