See, smell, and eat at Hidalgo’s street markets twice a week to get a unique Mexican pueblo experience. The street markets come twice a week but the better/larger one is Tuesday’s. Do not expect a plethora of Mexican handicrafts, if any, as you might expect in more southern parts of Mexico. This is Walmart on wheels. Hours are generally from 9 am to 3 pm, or whenever they feel like it.
Tuesday’s market can be found on a crossroad with the main road that runs from Potrero Chico to the Cemex plant.
Friday’s market is next to the Police station and an adjacent street, across from the cemetery.
