Mercado Indio

One of the best handicraft markets, Mercado Indio aggregates some 100 stands that offer products from almost every corner of the country. Although most of the jewelry, textiles, home accessories, ceramics, furniture, and other crafts are mass-produced, you can find some unique pieces.

It is located in the centre of Miraflores, a few blocks away from Kennedy park and next to… another handicraft market.

Indeed, Petit Thouars avenue is lined with handicraft markets. The biggest is probably the Indian Market (Petit Thouars 5321), 130 stands with enough possibilities to shop till you drop, while the Portada del Sol (Petit Thouars 5419) is a small 21-stand market that comprises a nice English-style bar where you can taste infusions of native curative plants, such as cat's claw, maca, and chuchuwasi.

Most markets have private parking and security guards for your peace of mind.

Open Mon-Sat 9am-8pm
