Tijuana's Mercado Hidalgo
When traveling, or showing someone my town, one of the things I love to do is visit the local open air markets. It shows so much what that society and daily life there is all about.During last year's Baja trip, the group got to spend an hour or so touring through the huge Mercado Hidalgo.
