We hired a guide for the market tours as apparently it's quite dangerous on your own as well as complicated. It was a really interesting tour. We saw so many amazing things.

| Different types of corn |
 |
| Aloe and spices to cure whatever. |
 |
| Every type of chili pepper possible I think |
 |
| Different flavoured salsas |

 |
| Us with our guide, Ho. |
 |
| Zucchini flowers in a tortilla. It was really good. |
 |
| Making tortillas. We had one hot off the stove. So good. |
 |
| A nice little appetizer plate Ho arranged for us to have. Mezcal (like Tequila but from a different region). Peanuts, fried crickets and an orange piece with worm salt. Rob ate a cricket but thought it was not very good. The Mezcal was good however. |
 |
| Wall mural of when this market was started. (Day after Rob was born) |
 |
| Santo Muerto statues and Christian statues you can buy to take home. He's coverd in US $ because American money has a lot of icons on it. |
 |
| Life size Santo Muerto (Dead Saint) you can buy for your house. You can get different outfits for it as well to change it up. |
 |
| Sweet seller. Ant larvae on the right. |
