Why go

Lucas de Gálvez is a strong introduction to Mérida's everyday commerce. Ingredients, household shopping and food counters sit within a market whose buildings have repeatedly changed to meet the city's needs. Exploring a few sections gives a more coherent visit than trying to see everything, especially when the market is crowded and active.
