It's a maze of vendors selling centerpieces, party favors, gigantic styrofoam signs, invitations, and linens, mostly for weddings, children's birthdays, and quinceaneros (the big fifteenth birthday celebration for girls). My brother was shaking glitter off of his sleeve when we exited. Outside, though it was dark and almost 10 p.m., the streets were also filled with people shopping for food, clothes, and sundries. I wondered if all these shoppers had been working during the day, or if they just preferred to shop later at night when it is cooler--in both senses of the word.
