La Lagunilla Market

La Lagunilla Market is a large marketplace in Mexico City spanning multiple buildings with dedicated sections for clothing, furniture, antiques, and food. The location serves thousands of daily visitors searching for new and used goods across its various zones.

The site served as a marketplace since Aztec times, functioning as a tianguis where commerce flourished in pre-Hispanic Mexico. The location has transformed from that ancient trading ground into the organized market structure seen today.

Collectors and shoppers gather to browse vintage furniture, handcrafted goods, and local items, especially on Sundays when the antiques section draws crowds. The space brings together people searching for unique objects and traditional Mexican craftsmanship.

The market is located ten blocks north of the Zócalo and operates throughout the week with heaviest foot traffic on Sundays. Arriving early in the day helps you navigate the crowds and browse more comfortably.

A special furniture fair takes place in May where local craftspeople display handmade wooden pieces alongside contemporary designs. This event showcases a blend of modern and traditional craftsmanship that gets overshadowed by the market's daily bustle.
