With hundreds of stalls selling fruits, veggies and meats, Valencia's
Mercado Central (or Mercat Central) is among the largest fresh food
markets in Europe. And although it has one of the city's principal
tourist attractions, it remained popular among locals as well, many of
whom do their everyday shopping here.
The
Mercado Central
dates from 1918, and while climbing the stairs to its main entrance,
it's nearly impossible not to stop and admire the facade. Ceramic tiles
are set above the arches, framing a massive circular window which bears
Valencia's coat of arms.
