Lonely Planet review for Mercado Central

The bustling Central Market is the best place in the city for, well, just about anything you’d want. This is the cheapest place to buy a hammock (Hecho en Nicaragua) or a pura vida T-shirt (Made in China), or a vast assortment of forgettable knickknacks. For something decidedly more Costa Rican, export-quality coffee beans can be bought at a fraction of the price you’ll pay in tourist shops.
