About this audio guide
This guide to the Usaquén Flea Market in Bogotá follows a Sunday tradition that began in 1990, when the city invited artisans to a one-day showcase that never stopped. It traces the market's 2009 split into rival vendor associations and a local lawyer's ongoing fight over how many people the crowds really bring. Listen for the canvas awnings going up before dawn, still on a stretch of street no one technically owns.
