"Coyoacán Market is one of the icons of this magical neighbourhood. If you want to get to know the daily life of an area, you must dive deeper into their markets, and this one in particular is famous for its color, folklore and tradition. In addition to finding every Mexican market basics like: vegetables, meat, groceries, raw materials, etc., the Mercado Coyoacán offers rich snacks, full meals, juices and smoothies, countless crafts, costumes for all occasions, traditional clothing, traditional Mexican toys, plants, gifts and even small birds (you name it). Hundreds of artists have walked its halls throughout time, but we want to highlight the constant walks of Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera, then again, Coyoacán was their hood. The complex covers an entire block of Del Carmen colony, has 3 large ships and a roof arch type houses what was once a flea market on the street Xicoténcatl. A feature of this market is that every festival, tenants sell everything you need to decorate, cook and celebrate this feast. For example, during December it is common to find many stalls selling romeritos, candy and piñatas for the holidays; flowers in early November and costumes for the Day of the Dead; in September hats, flags and everything necessary to prepare national holidays." - Leolab
