Description

On the Flavors of Mexico tour we explore the Juarez neighborhood which is home to the famous Sunday flea market. “La Juarez” represents working families who have outspoken opinions with a rebellious streak. Its history is inherently connected to the growth of Mazatlan in the twentieth century. How did the city grow from a town of 40,000 inhabitants to a city of half a million? Who were the first residents of the Juarez neighborhood? And who migrated to Sinaloa from other states and which specialties did they bring?

​Discover a different side of Mazatlan and let your taste buds travel around Mexico one bite at a time.
