A MUST GO/ SEE/ VISIT every time I am back in Belo Horizonte, Brazil! It NEVER disappoints, delicious food and freshly prepared drinks everywhere, sugar cane juice, baked goods such as "coxinhas", "kibes", sandwiches, and a whole LOT more that makes this special place a MUST GO EVERY TIME! The endless variety of local shops and "cachaças" is astounding, and it keeps getting bigger and better every year, I always bring a huge number of bottles of Brazilian Cachaças for friends and family in the UK and they love this cane sugar rum right before they get to bed any time of the year, summer or winter & ask for more whenever we go again! People are kind, friendly and helpful wherever you stop by to try the incredible selection of cheese, sweets and whatever else that catches your eye! Easy access and fun anytime, but try not to go during the weekends when there's a lot more people/ visitors not just from other states in Brazil, but also lots of people from Europe. Monday thru friday works much better and you can get better, faster services, but if you aren't in a hurry, then it's great anytime! Can't wait to go back in march 2024!

A destination when in Belo Horizonte! The food, the shops, the people, the experience is absolutely unique and overwhelmingly outstanding. I love everything about Mercado Central de BH. I always make a point to stop, grab a bite to eat, and drink (Choppe or caipirinha!) and bring something you only find in Brazil, home. My suggestion, if you can get to Mercado by public transportation or walking, you'll be saving money you can spend shopping or eating because parking is VERY expensive at R$12/hr which can rack up quickly if you make your visit an afternoon event.

Mercado Central it is like... another dimension... A magical place surrounded of vivid colors, unmistakable smells... hundreds of people dribble the congested and tight hallways. Looking for the best deal, from thousands of stores that side-by-side compete for your hard earned money. The Mercado Central is a complex fusion of races, ages, dialects, culture, and flavors... What ever you want, you will find it, even if you don't need you will get it. More then just a market, it is a life experience, come, embrace it, enjoy it and come back for more...

This is a must do activity for Belo Horizonte. Shop for artisanal gourmet products like specialty cheeses and sweets, or discover a vast array of local cachaça. It's also a great place to pick up trinkets for gifts and other knickknack. The people here are friendly and helpful, and unlike other markets in different cities throughout Brazil, there's less rabble and shouting. You can even make a pit stop at one of the bars inside the market and sample some local dishes.

I entered through a secondary entrance and found this sad and disappointing scene. I had no desire to continue walking and left. How is it possible that they allow this in 2024, animals in a cage and suffering. In our countries this has already been overcome, it is prohibited and is a crime. As a foreign visitor I do not recommend visiting this place because by doing so we indirectly contribute to this cruel activity
