Centro Cultural de los Artistas
While there are dozens of markets and shops in the vibrantly painted buildings around El Caminito selling arts, crafts and souvenirs, this complex was the first and remains the best. Not only does it give you an opportunity to take a peek inside one of the former tenements, but it has a small art gallery where you can buy local paintings.
