Market entrance. There are several entrances, but this is the closest to my house |
My fruit lady. She has a wonderful smile, but didn't want to for the photo. I see her pretty much every week, and if I don't, she asks where I've been. |
Collection of bags and household items |
Clothing area |
The organization of the market is amazing. On the right they are selling jewelry and opposite cleaning supplies. In the far left a banana stand on the far right bras and underwear. |
Flower shop |
The display of fruits and vegetables is a work of art at every stand |
Also interesting to see all the fruits and vegetables with chips up tome |
Cute kid sitting atop the fruit |
One of the many fruit/vegetable areas of the market |
Spices |
The meat area - yes, it just hangs out all day |
When I asked to take a picture of the stand, the guys said it was ok but then ducked out of view. |
There is also a lot of prepared food to buy |
Hard at work flipping blue corn tortillas |
The outside portion of the market |
You can literally buy anything here! And you can see it's time to prepare for Christmas. |
Many, many eggs! A carton of eggs (30 eggs) costs about $4.50 |
So much amazing fresh produce for cheap! A pineapple is $1.30 |
Massive papayas |
Behind the market is where the chicken buses park. Chicken buses are the public transportation around Guatemala. |
The Paca - where old clothes come to get a new life for super low prices |
If you're into hunting for clothing, you can find some awesome deals here! |
Another inside portion of the market |
It just keeps going and going... |
