Mercados:

MERCADO LIBERTAD (SAN JUAN DE DIOS)
Located at Calzada Independencia and Av. Juarez in the downtown historic area. This is one of the largest indoor markets in Latin America. The site of this huge building was an indigenous marketplace long before the arrival of the Spanish. In addition to the usual vast assortment of gifts and daily goods, Christmas decorations and Nativity pieces are featured in the vast inventory.

Tonala - Regular Shops
The artesanías village of Tonala has long been famous for the ceramics produced there. While most visitors visit the street markets, a second day in the village just to explore the shops is warranted.

Tlaquepaque
More upscale than Tonala, Tlaquepaque boutiques and stores are always a joy to visit. They are filled with interesting and unusual gift and home items from throughout Mexico. The perfect spot for lunch or shopped-out husbands is the Parian, the grand plaza square, divided into 14 separate restaurants, and filled with wandering Mariachi groups.
