GUADALAJARA BY NIGHT

Balloons in the plaza

  Like all big Mexican cities Guadalajara is a melting pot of contrasts. By day, a busy bustling city of crowded streets where shoppers frequent big stores like Gigante, Sears and C and A; but in the evening it assumes a new identity as a vast market place and playground where families meet in the plazas and browse the thousands of stalls selling arts, crafts, souvenirs and enough jewellery to decorate the whole of Mexico.
