  4. Mercado Central

    A truly local market, this sprawling indoor-outdoor bazaar has everything from atole to zapatos (shoes) - not to mention produce, hot food and souvenirs. Any eastbound 'Pie de la Cuesta' or 'Pedregoso' bus will drop you here; get off where the sidewalk turns to tarp-covered stalls.

  5. Mercado de Artesanías

    Bargaining is the rule at Acapulco's main craft market, especially as the sellers often find soft touches among the many cruise-ship passengers. The 400-stall mercado is paved and pleasant, and an OK place to get better deals on everything that you see in the hotel shops - sarapes, hammocks, jewelry, huaraches, clothing and T-shirts.
