Hundreds of traders with their products at an open market. Nice place tp bargain if know Spanish. The market is good for handmade sweaters, ponchos and jewellery. If you have time you may visit. NOT a necessary trip. Prices at La Mariscal were same or better on some things

Very punctual and fun. Just remember that the market is like a tourist trap and always look for a bargain
