Guadalajara mercado, Guadalajara centro, Mexico
Guadalajara mercado, Guadalajara centro, Mexico - fruit and vegetables front the Guadalajara mercado, or market, in Guadalajara's centro. Farther inside are food stalls, souvenir stuff and some useful shops. I was given a piece of sugar cane from a stall here, just at the right of this photo, freshly whacked off the stalk and doused with lime, sugar and chile powder, and a hostelmate shared a fresh coconut and a straw with me. Sweet.

The mercado is a five minute walk from the cozy Hostel de Maria, which should be your home away from home in Guadalajara. Click on numbers in the grey bar above or below for more photos and information on the Hostel de Maria and its Guadalajara neighborhood.
