The market on the Plaza de la Solidaridad is a market that I have – like for real – passed every single time I walked to the centre. I think it was even the first market in Mexico City that I randomly walked past. I didn’t even notice it at first, but after walking the same route from my hostel to the centre again and again and again, I realised at some point – funnily enough, when the market wasn’t set up – that this market actually seems to exist almost 24/7. I hardly know this square without a market. Like for real. I was quite perplexed to see it without a market and then promptly walked across it for the first time.
Funnily enough, that was also the moment when I decided to take photos of the market and deliberately walk across it. Some things you just don’t see until they’re suddenly gone 😀

A little fun fact: I – to be honest – don’t even really know if the market has a name. It’s just in the Plaza de la Solidaridad right in the centre – I looked it up on Google Maps – and that’s what I called it. 😀 However, it actually extends to the corner of the square and the entrance to the metro station and ends at the park of Bellas Artes. I found out when I walked across it.

Go or not go? There really are a lot of markets in Mexico City. You can walk across it, but in my opinion it’s a street market like any other. So if you’re walking past it anyway, why not, but otherwise it’s not necessary 😉
