This former convent is now the best place in town to shop for arts and crafts from a slew of various vendors.
Morelia boasts an enormous amount of art and crafts, ranging from textiles to copper and all the amazing representations of Day of the Dead. Patzcuaro is famous for it's lacquerware and even if that isn't your thing, you have to marvel at the skill of these artists who daily produce such marvelous and unique pieces. The House of the Eleven Patios is not only an interesting building but also a very convenient way to see artisans at work across a variety of skills. And it is only when one returns to the larger cities that one realizes that most of the prices are an absolute bargain.

Stopped in Capula on our full day tour of Patzcuaro and surrounds. The town is reknowned for its artisans who create the colorful Catrinas--bright, flowery porcelain statues of female skeletons dressed in flamboyant attire. These are definitely different than anything we have seen in our travels and were so taken with them, we bought several . The Venta Artesanias is one of many places in town where you can see and purchase a variety of craftsmen's works. Our purchases reside in one of our cabinets where we see them on a daily basis and are a constant reminder of our wonderful trip through Michoacan.

When I am in Morelia, I always stop by this wonderful shop featuring the best handicrafts in Michoacan. All their items are of top quality, and I usually buy a rebozo in the hard-to-fine Patzcuaro style. There are also gorgeous jewelry, china, glassware, musical instruments, Michoacan ceramics and clothing to tempt you. In my opinion, you haven’t seen Morelia if you don’t spend some time in this amazing store.
