Riogordo Street Market (Wednesday)
Weekly Wednesday market with around 20 stalls selling clothing, handicrafts, and flowers at Plaza de la Constitución in Riogordo.
Riogordo Street Market sets up every Wednesday from 9:00 to 14:00 at Plaza de la Constitución in Riogordo, a small Axarquía village about 40 km inland from Málaga. Around 20 stalls line the central square each week, selling clothing, handicrafts, and flowers. Bring cash, as card payments aren't accepted. Get there early for the best selection, as stalls start packing up well before closing time.
What you'll find
The market focuses on clothing and textiles, handmade crafts, and potted plants and flowers. It's a compact setup geared towards everyday goods for local residents, but the handicraft stalls are worth checking out if you're passing through the Axarquía. You can browse the whole market comfortably in under an hour.

Where to stay in Riogordo
Riogordo is a small village, so accommodation options are limited right in the centre. Staying in Town Centre puts you within easy walking distance of the Wednesday market, and the surrounding area has a handful of rural guesthouses and casas rurales worth checking out.
If you prefer more choice, the nearby town of Vélez-Málaga is just a short drive away and has a good range of hotels, making it a practical base for an early morning trip to the market.
