概要
クイックファクト: Colorful papel picado ripples overhead while the smell of grilled carne asada and warm churros weaves through crowded lanes. More than 100 family-run stalls sell handmade pottery, leather goods, and vibrant textiles, and nightly mariachi bands add a lively soundtrack.
見どころ: Enter a three-block maze of stalls and the blast of mariachi trumpets mixes with the scent of roasted corn, while hand-painted serapes hang like rainbow flags from every booth. Small hands crowd piñata-making workshops of 10 to 15 people, glue-slick fingers shaping the bright papier-mâché cones used in the traditional seven-point design.
インサイダーヒント
- Wear comfortable shoes, Market Square has uneven cobblestones and long aisles.
- Bring cash and small bills; many vendors prefer or only accept cash for small purchases.
- For photos, stand beneath the papel picado in the central plaza or by the Market Square arch at golden hour.
- Visit weekday late mornings to avoid weekend crowds, or come at night for lively music and festive lighting.
