Markets in Beniaján
Murcia, Region of Murcia
Beniaján has two street markets serving this district of Murcia city, both running on a weekly schedule. The main draw is the Friday market, which sets up around 25 stalls on Calle San Francisco selling fresh fruit, vegetables, meat and poultry, bread and pastries, and clothing. A second market, the Beniajandillo Craft Market, focuses on handicrafts and runs separately on its own weekly schedule in the Beniajandillo area.

Where to stay in Beniaján
Beniaján is a small residential suburb just southeast of Murcia city, so your best bet is to stay in Murcia City Centre, where you'll find the most hotels and easy transport links out to the markets. Two solid options worth checking are NH Amistad Murcia and Hotel Siete Coronas, both well-placed for exploring the wider area.
If you'd rather be closer to Beniaján itself, look for accommodation along the main road corridor connecting it to the city, since it's only a short drive or bus ride away from everything you need.

The Beniaján Friday Weekly Market is the larger of the two, with around 25 indoor stalls open from 09:00 to 14:00. It covers everyday essentials including fresh produce grown in the Segura Valley, butcher stalls, bakery goods, and clothing. Stalls are wheelchair accessible and the market accepts cash, contactless, and mobile payments.
The Beniajandillo Craft Market operates as a separate weekly event in the Beniajandillo part of the district, with a focus on handmade handicrafts. Stall numbers are not confirmed, but it offers a more artisan character than the Friday general market.
For more options across the region, the Murcia Region tourism site lists market days throughout Murcia province.
