Mexico City City Guide

La Merced is one of the most traditional markets in Mexico City, because its foundation goes back quite a way. It has become a center for the sale of all types of goods, including vegetables, clothing, shoes, meat, livestock, fish, seafood and imported articles for a while now. Prices are very reasonable but it can get rather crowded at times. It is a good place to buy ingredients for daily meals, and is also fun to browse. You might be able to find parking spaces around the market, but it is advisable to use the metro.
