THE TAKE

Six decades and 350-plus stalls deep, this is the folk-art floor of the country gathered under one roof in the Centro.

WHY IT’S WORTH IT

1A cultural institution since the 1960s, born for the Olympics and never left, now run by a union of artisans

2The widest single concentration of Mexican folk art in the city, vendors from 22 states under one roof

3Talavera, alebrijes, textiles, Olinala lacquer, cartoneria, the real craft and not the airport version
