Very fresh greens, fruits & veg. All grown locally, so there is a very tropical/asian feel to the produce. Prices vary from stall to stall as does variety. So walk around, see what's on offer & then decide which stall to buy which product from.

Great market for produce, craft and an amazing section of food/drinks. A mini Mindel market. While we took a local bus we did find out that a free shuttle bus operates from main accommodation places in the city. We caught this back .Enquire at your accommodation. We found an interesting grocery store ( would of walked past if door hadn't been open) a trip in time with an excellent little cellar in the corner, even had wine tasting day we were there! Well worth a visit.

This outdoor mall has something for everyone. There is a playground for kids, shops featuring everything from clothing to plush animals to hats. There is also some small coffee shops for food and drink. Great place to pick up last minute gifts.
