This is one of the city's oldest markets, also known as the Marché Saint-Antoine, which housed market gardeners in a wooden hall that was destroyed by fire in 1871. The new metal halls date from 1874. The atmosphere is colorful and fragrant with the fruits and spices on display. You'll also find punches, basketry and love potions... Some of the merchants still wear the traditional headdress. It is advisable to ask permission before taking a photo.

Le Marché central de Pointe-à-Pitre, est appelé le Marché aux épices par celles qui tout au long de l'année l'animent avec courtoisie. Laissez Marie-Chantal vous proposer ses différents mélanges d'épices antillaises et vous offrir sa fameuse recette du Colombo.
Prenez le temps de discuter avez sa voisine qui vous propose de belles tiges de vanille fraîche. Et pourquoi ne pas lui acheter une belle boîte en bois pour les conserver. Et, si vous avez le goût d'une boisson bien du pays, une bouteille de leur fameux ti-punch.Tous ces produits sont typiques de la région et très abordables. .
Very nice market... Our charming saleswoman did not hesitate to make us enjoy these spices to a low price and even a small gift... A small sachet of mix of cinnamon and aniseed, without even as you ask him wanting... Very pleasant...
Do not miss the market pointe Clown: the spice smells, colourful crowd, the traditional activities and products are a feast for the senses!
