Mercado de Abastos

Visit Santiago’s working food market to see produce and seafood trading in its purpose-built twentieth-century halls. The stalls give this central stop a lively daily purpose.

Why go

The stalls make this a living part of the city rather than another monument. The present market building dates from 1941, continuing a longer history of covered trading here. A morning visit gives you time to browse without treating the market as a museum.

What to look for

  • 1941 market halls
  • Produce and seafood stalls

Useful to know

  • Check the venue’s current opening and entry conditions before scheduling an interior visit.
