What to see at the Table of the Saints?
1. Farmer's Market
We want to start by telling you that unfortunately a few weeks ago the Mercado Campesino de Mesa de los Santos suffered a collapse at its main entrance, which was being renovated. However, we want to invite you to visit this place because the entrepreneurs who worked there continue to sell their products just 200 meters from the site.
We assure you that it is worth going, because in this Mercado Campesino you will find the ingenuity of the peasants and their roots in the customs of the region.
This place is a mandatory stop that has attracted tourists in recent times, as coming here is a delight for the palate and a great contribution to the people who work here.
Some delicacies that you will discover are the typical Santanderean foods such as mute soup, carne oreada, Santanderean tamale, corn arepas with curd and roast kid.
For those who enjoy a sweet treat after lunch, in the farmer's market there are ice cream parlors that offer gelatos of different flavors.
There are also bars where they sell German and all kinds of beers, and of course! Micheladas and cocktails that you will surely not resist trying.
The Mercado Campesino de Mesa de los Santos is a place rich in gastronomy, but handicrafts are not far behind; Here you will find shops selling handmade decorative objects, ideal to give a gift to someone special or to take home a reminder of your time in Santander.
