San Francisco, El Alto Market
Quetzaltenango,
Guatemala
San Francisco el Alto market is a favorite spot for the Spanish Schools to visit each Friday. This outdoor market is jammed packed on Friday with pigs, cows, goats, chickens, sheep and most other animals that can be traded. You can also find fruit, vegetables, handicrafts and just about anything else you might need.
The market is a wonderful opportunity to experience Guatemalan daily life.
