Markets to visit Italy

The origin of the large fish market in Pescaria, located on the island of Rialto, in Venice, dates back to the th century. But current buildings, brick and marble, date back to 1907. To enjoy the excitement and the profusion of these caves, which are full of a multitude of fish and shellfish, you must come early in the morning. Starting at 8 am is the best. Moreover, the Venetians say it: " The fish has 24 lives and it loses one per hour! " So to find fresh fish and still frétillant, there is no question of waiting the end of the morning! The stalls are almost empty, the atmosphere has fallen, some tourists wander through the aisles as if they had missed their train…

Inaugurated in 1931, the Albinelli food markets are the oldest in the city and among the most beautiful in Italy. In liberty style, in the centre of the halles stands a statue also dating from the beginning of the 20th century. A picturesque and colourful market not to be missed.

Located at the intersection of Città, Banchi di Sotto and Banchi di Sopra streets, the loggia della Mercanzia, an elegant building between late Gothic and Renaissance, once housed the Siena Commercial Court. Built between 1428 and 1445, this pretty portico is known for the statues representing the city's patron saints, which adorn its pilasters: San Savino, Sant'Ansano, San Vittore, San Pietro and San Paolo. On the sides, finely carved marble benches represent philosophers of antiquity.

Huge market, which became very popular because we do business in gold.
