The small town of Otavalo is famous for its friendly people and their Saturday market. The market dates back to pre-Incan times when jungle products were brought up from eastern lowlands and traded for highlands goods. Today`s market serves two different groups: locals who buy and barter animals, food and other essentials, and tourists looking for crafts. Here you will find everything from ceramic pots and jewelry, to hats made of wool or straw, and native paintings.
