Mercado N°1 de Surquillo

A traditional market where Lima's celebrated chefs shop for ingredients, with a huge variety of Peruvian fruit, potatoes and chilies, plus affordable stalls serving fresh ceviche.

The market lies on the north side of Miraflores, across the expressway, and is a must-visit for food lovers. Sample tropical fruits such as cherimoya, lucuma and passion fruit, see dozens of Andean potato varieties and corn, and enjoy fresh, inexpensive ceviche at the market's small food stalls. Many cooking classes also begin with shopping trips here. It is about a 15-minute walk from Parque Kennedy, and mornings are the best time to visit.
