San Juan de Dios market is transformed into a holiday wonderland

Once more, the Mercado de San Juan de Dios is transformed into a wonderland as the Christmas marketplace is open for business.

Extra booths have been erected around the market and they are filled with ornaments, Nativity figures and accessories, decorations, Baby Jesus figurines of many hues and sizes (and gorgeous gowns of swaddling clothes), garlands, pines, sparklers, elf costumes, devil’s pitchforks, cuetlaxochitls, Santa caps, treats, and holiday fantasies.

Wander inside and you’ll find even more of the same.

No holiday in San Miguel de Allende is complete without a stroll through the sprawling marketplace. This is like one big, sprawling, lively Christmas card to yourself.

Enjoy this sampling of what’s in store.

Happy Holidays!
