    La Merced

    Posted by paulwebster 25 February 2006

    A giant market, crawling with prostitutes. The main reason to visit is a giant witchcraft market virtually tourist free, where you can buy candles, handicrafts, a love potion or spell for anything, and just soak in the atmosphere.

    In the neigbouring block is a giant exotic animal market, again interesting but very sad considering the conditions some animals are kept in. Remember this is not the best part of town and the witchcraft market is not geared towards tourists but to people with deeply held beliefs so be careful not to offend.

    Take the metro to La Merced (pink line). You will exit into the main food market. Ask directions to El Mercado de la Brujeria (Witchcraft Market)
