When you wander around the Condesa neighbourhood, you have a rather strong feeling that you aren't in big choatic Mexico City, but rather a small provincial European town... except maybe for the taco stands and mounds of chillies in the street market. Next we walked along some charming streets, popping into tiny shops and photographing the small details usually missed when rushing around in a car, as we headed for the Tuesday street market.The market was a riot of colour, with stands of fruit and vegetables neatly piled up, and a whole section given over to cooking food for hungry shoppers.We finally made our way back down Calle Veracruz, through Parque España, the other big park in Condesa and arrived at our starting point.Wherever you go in Condesa, there is always something unusual or quirky to photograph...on this occasion, a life-size rhino and lioness walking up the side of a building. It definitely pays to savour life slowly with a camera in your hand and this is one of the best ways to get to know a neighbourhood.
