Manizales food market is open everyday from early until about 4pm. It is a big oval shaped building in the middle of the intersection of Calle 23 and Carrera 16. On the inside of this building is different meats including cow or pig heads, to pig feet, to horse jaws to any other part of the animal you could imagine. Surrounding the building on the street under umbrellas and canvas is a fruit and veggies type market. And on the south side across the road from the 'oval' building is a herbs and spices market. In this market you can also buy live chickens and eggs.

Anyways, it would be a good place to get cheap food, or, as was my case, just see it all...and reafirm your vegetarian ways. The meat market was gross!

 Manizales can be a fun city, during the Feria we had a great time, but I got the impression that outside of this it would be a rather dull place. It has some interesting architechture and artwork in...
