There were so many local markets, and any of them are amazing to visit. Even if you don't get to the local markets, you are hounded by people to buy their wares. I ended up leaving there with sooo may things, and I was only there for one day! The markets are a MUST!!!

I had the most wonderful time here. To me, the most memorable moments were just walking through the streets of this lovely city, looking around at all the local faces, the buildings, the clothes they wore. Everything was just amazing! And I would recommend it for any adventurous or not-so-adventurous soul out there.
