Mercado San Juan de Dios (Mercado Libertad)

The largest covered market in Latin America, with three floors and 3,000 stalls covering everything from leather goods and electronics to fresh produce and artisan food, is the most overwhelming sensory experience in Guadalajara and the definitive Mexican market at scale. The birria de chivo (goat stew) stalls on the second floor feeding market workers and shoppers with massive clay bowls of red broth and stacked tortillas are the definitive Guadalajara food experience.
