Samper Mendoza Market Place
Its history begins in 1935, originally 4 internal granaries and a materials warehouse were located there and it was known as the Plaza del Nordeste, a peasant market that arrived on trains from the municipalities of Sogamoso (Boyacá) and Barbosa (Santander). In 1956 it functioned as an urban transportation parking lot and finally became one of the most traditional herb markets in Colombia.
In October 2013, more than 60 peasant and indigenous families from Coyaima (Tolima) joined the plaza, selling tamale leaves in the lane located behind the Plaza de Paloquemao.
