"A magnificent market that is bustling most days! Amazing produce of all kinds to be had at very reasonable prices. The strawberries actually had TASTE, and they had three varieties to choose from, spectacular!!"

"A fairly lively place with a market offering truly excellent agricultural products, unlike the rest of the city, which seems quite anonymous and lacking life at least, that’s my impression."
Tommaso Pante
"Old town square. There are fruit and vegetable vendors in the square. Various food vendors around. It's not a large marketplace."
