What to expect
Mercado Margarita Maza de Juárez or better known as Mercado de Abastos is the biggest market in Oaxaca City. Located at South West on the city only 15 minutes walking distance from Zocalo
Thinking about exploring it by yourself could be challenging considering its extension -over 16 hectares-, and not talking about finding the best spots and stalls to discover the immense variety of food and drinks this market has to offer.
During this tour that is exactly what we´ll be doing, walking all around eating and drinking its delicious food and drinks and also visiting the craft areas where local Maestros and Maestras Artesans offer their products directly from their workshops
