This Market, only a block from our hotel on La Rambla in Barcelona, was, for me, one of the best parts of the city. There has been a market in this location since the 13th century, though the present incarnation dates from the mid-19th century and its metal roof from 1914.
There was so much I could have bought, but, alas, we were leaving soon. So I put my iPhone to use.
Artfully piled gelatos, below
Many stands sold these fruit cups - all so colourful and irresistible
Spices
Mushrooms
Salted Fish
Shellfish
This fish vendor was getting fresh ice
Oops, fish getting out?
Dried fruit and nuts
Below: looks like fresh fruit/veg but is actually marzipan.
