The historical center and heart of the city's Mexican culture, the square is the largest Mexican marketplace outside of Mexico. Here you can dine on Mexican food at one of several cafes, enjoy the lively sounds of Mariachi bands, and buy the wonderful blankets, clothes, leather and metal goods, and more imported from just south of the border. The square plays host to many cultural events and fairs throughout the year, including Fiesta del Mercado (Party of the Market) in April and Dia De Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) in November.

  • Nice open space, not far from downtown & riverwalk
  • none I can think of

“The Market square is a 10 -15 minute walk from the Riverwalk area and about a 20 minute walk from the Alamo. It has lots of shops with unique Texas and Mexican style crafts. Some shops are very touristy with your average t-shirts, hats, etc. But others have great things to buy for friends and family back home. The restaurants in the square are almost all Mexican themed, but that's a good thing and there are about 5 to choose from. A nice place to walk around when the weather is nice.”
