Markets Guatemala

On the Parque Central and its surroundings every day. But on Friday and Sunday, it grows and you can find tissues and guipils worn around the lake in a dense and colourful crowd.

There are mainly necessities, fruits, vegetables, etc. Unlike other urban markets, the Mercado Centrale is not confined in a small space. So you can travel relatively quietly without being forced to dart between shops and stalls. A little in retreat, a modern market brings together several handicraft shops where you can find the same as in the streets, without the "typical" atmosphere.

There are exclusively articles intended for tourists, fabrics, huipiles, souvenirs, all from (you will tell you) the artisan workshops of the villages of the highlands. Smaller but more interesting than the first, since you can see the women weave.

You did not have time to shop or wait the last days before the return to avoid carrying your gifts? So these two addresses will allow you to find a quality craft at a very interesting price.

With the festivities linked to the All, and the landscapes around the village, this is one of the main attractions of the place. Important artisan centre, with beautiful colourful fabrics.
