What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors appreciate the Central Market Šiauliai for its authentic local produce, quality meats, and the opportunity to support small businesses. While it may not be as large as it once was, it still offers a genuine taste of Šiauliai's agricultural heart and unique finds like wild mushrooms. Some note the presence of modern malls has reduced the number of farmer stalls.
"Old Market Place.
Not many farmers stalls now as Siauliai is oversupplied with Shopping Malls.
Bought some fresh picked wild mushrooms which were delicious."
