Mercado de Sonora

Mercado de Sonora is a market in Venustiano Carranza that spans multiple levels and houses hundreds of vendor stalls. These spaces offer medicinal herbs, traditional remedies, spices, Mexican food items, and religious objects side by side.

The market was founded in the 1950s and grew into a major commercial hub for the city. Since then, vendors have maintained practices rooted in traditional Mexican medicine and spiritual crafts passed down through generations.

This market serves as a gathering place where people shop for objects connected to religious and spiritual practices woven into everyday life. Visitors come to find ceremonial goods and healing materials that remain part of many households and local customs.

The location is accessible by public transportation and operates daily from early morning through evening. It is best to bring cash for purchases, and visitors should be prepared for crowded conditions during peak hours.

The market houses specialized sections with spiritual items such as crystals and ritual materials that are not found in regular stores. These sections draw people seeking traditional healing practices and metaphysical goods.
