The city's largest street market is just south of the city center.
This is a hidden gem and a must visit place. One of the longest markets in Europe, it offers a fascinating array of food and produce, all at some amazing prices. Be it the fresh Stroop waffles, the grill cheese sandwiches, fresh fruit juices, strawberries with the most delicious whipped cream ever... this place has something for everyone! Oh... did I not mention the cheese?! Some of the most amazing cheese that we've ever tasted! We also got some great souvenirs and found them to be relatively cheaper. The stall owners are friendly and helpful and very welcoming. The market itself is easily accessible from the metro station and is marked easily. Just google the directions and you'll be there in no time at all. This is a must visit place and cannot be missed at all. Just remember its closed on Sunday!
