About
Mercado Oriental, Calle 15 de Setiembre. Listed here reluctantly but, hey, there are always tourists who can't resist the thrill of being in a dangerous place! And it is famous (so is Hitler, though). Check in the safety section below for further information on this rather, uh, interesting shopping experience. Really though, it's much safer and saner to do your shopping in places like the Mercado Huembes and Metrocentro. Pick-pocketing, grab-and-run theft, and armed robberies are regular occurrences in the Mercado Oriental.
