Mercado Público
Mercado Público Review
The neoclassical Public Market was constructed in 1869. It has undergone repeated renovations, the last of which added the glass roof that now covers the central inner plaza. With these changes, some of the produce stalls have been replaced by souvenir shops, cafés, and restaurants, taking away a bit of the boisterous bazaar ambience but increasing the options for the visitor. One of the best restaurants in the city, Gambrinus, is here.
