travaling around mexico city and market la merced
La merced" part of the journey to know the second largest market in Mexico. Being a local resident I have lived for more than 15 years in the market being what I call a home I grew up throughout my childhood in the market coming from a family of tenants I know the places and the fabulous experiences that the market can offer. Leaving the route and the normal visit that they can offer you, daring to know other experiences, being the one who is part of the guide and decides what activities and tastings you want to do, to be able to develop as if you were at home. You will be able to enjoy the atmosphere that is lived as live music, typical dishes that people eat in their day to day, local fruit, pre-Hispanic ingredients, natural fruit water, traditional sweets and many more things, see what a normal day would be like and not get a different idea of a true Mexican.
