Mercado San Camilo

Colorful and vibrant market experience Mercado San Camilo is a must-visit in Arequipa! It offers a fantastic variety of exotic fruits, many of which you won’t find elsewhere. The market itself is beautiful and full of life, with stalls overflowing with fresh fruits and vegetables at great prices. A perfect place to explore local flavors and enjoy the atmosphere.

Really nice. Go there buy some fruits and taste it (you can buy a lot for 10 soles already). You also find cheese, fish and some hats there. It is interesting and not too big.

It's a little bit crowded, but almost everything could be found here. Good to try the juice and local food.

If you're trying to sample the local produce, but local meats, sausages or even cheeses this place is wonderful. They do have a lot of local teas and even small shops with plants and seeds.

If you are in Arequipo, you must go to the local market. This is not a tourist trap. You will see mostly locals shopping here. Goggle translating app will be handy here.

Our favorite local market by far, as they offer everything we needed in our trip. The fresh juice stands were how we started each visit and the fruit stands themselves were a treat. We found a dedicated fruit guy and return to him each time as his prices never changed for us. The other stands changed prices when they saw we were American and so I shopped until I found someone who doesn’t. The meat selection was phenomenal and fresh, and the flowers were one of my wife’s favorite things to pick up. The overall quality of this market is definitely superior to others we visited and thus we return here often.

What an incredible market! You’ll find everything from souvenirs and herbs to Palo Santo, along with food stalls, fresh juices, and an abundance of fruits. The people are incredibly warm and welcoming, and while you can try bargaining, the prices are already fantastic! A must-visit when in Arequipa!

Well worth a visit to see a variety of products. We bought two different fruits and while some vendors can be pushy others just sit back and let you ask them questions. Our items were charged based on weight, but likely could be haggled down too, and there's a lot of food and items for people to buy.
