Located in the heart of the city, this noisy and exuberant market is a sight not to be missed.
It's a two-floor covered building and sells everything from fresh fruit to household goods.
Especially entertaining is listening to the flamboyant fishwives hawking the latest catch in true Oporto spirit, butcher with fresh meats and game! an image that has made this market famous all over Portugal.
