Overview
Mercado de Abastos is a stimulating experience, with a patchwork of seemingly endless vendors selling meat, fish, fruit and veggies — most of which you probably won't recognise.
With few tourists making the trip, it's also a stellar spot for shopping local clay goods and handicrafts at a great price.
Although navigating this sprawling market isn't too difficult on your own, heading along with a local food tour ensures you'll get introduced to the unmissable stalls.
