Bazar Sábado

  • Address: Plaza San Jacinto, San Angel, Mexico City

Fodor's Review:

A "must" -- if you're in town on a Saturday -- is a visit to the. Hundreds of vendors sell tons of crafts, silver, wood carvings, embroidered clothing, leather goods, wooden masks, beads, amates (bark paintings), and trinkets at stalls on the network of cobbled streets outside. Inside the bazaar building, a renovated two-story colonial mansion, are the better-quality -- and higher-priced -- goods, including alebrijes (painted wooden animals from Oaxaca), glassware, pottery, jewelry, and papier-mâché flowers. A patio buffet and an indoor restaurant will help you conquer hunger and thirst.
