The market of Puerto Montt is one of the most interesting of the country. It shows you how rich in seafood products this part of the Pacific Ocean is. Going in a Saturday or Sunday morning gives you a fully colorful view of the locals, that are coming from the islands around the town to sell their own local products. Flowers, plants, chickens, ducks, as well as self-made local products. A must! if you enjoy markets.
