Local tip
Liberty Market is open daily from 06:00 to 20:00, so you can shop for snacks well before sunset. The Cabañas Cultural Institute is open Tuesday to Sunday from 10:00 to 18:00. If you plan to enter the building or see the frescoes, arrive before 18:00. If you are just viewing the exterior for the sunset, the grounds are accessible, but check if the main entrance closes at 18:00.
