Cusco – Mercado Central de San Pedro

 


The San Pedro Market is the place where locals gather and go for their groceries. Everything was on display and I loved hanging out there. Just wandering around the stalls with towers of fruit, mounds of baked breads, spices, seeds, fresh flowers, and handmade crafts, alpaca bags, hats & sweaters and fried guinea pigs (cuy) and pig heads on the adjacent aisle.   It was an inside look at Peruvian everyday culture.
