Municipal Market — Attraction in San Cristóbal de La Laguna

Clean, bright, no-smell, WCs, well signed, close. No homeless people, no hawkers attacking you. Good selection of vendors, ground coffee guy, spice guy, meat guys, fish.

We bought some stuff from 4 different sellers, and as we have realized later on, we got charged much more from each of them.

Everything is weighted, so always ask for a receipt when buying multiple things...
