"Handicraft Shopping This shop offers a wide variety of high-quality handicrafts from all over Oaxaca . You'll find a room devoted to woolen rugs, one to woodcarvings, and several to ceramics. On my most recent visit, I couldn't resist picking up a "Catrina," one of the female skeletons associated with Day of the Dead festivities, as well as some decorative cut paper."
