What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Bajloni Market is cherished for its authentic local atmosphere and fresh produce, offering a genuine slice of Belgrade life. While some find its layout a bit worn, its historical charm and proximity to Skadarlija make it a worthwhile visit for those seeking an unpretentious, traditional market experience.
"The Market is a well known local spot in the city, located just a short walk from the bohemian quarter of Skadarlija. It’s fair in size and offers a nice selection of fresh fruits, vegetables, fish, and meat. You’ll find both local farmers selling seasonal produce and vendors with more “exotic” items like avocados and lemons.
The market has a rich history, originally built on a former swamp drained by Ignjat Bajloni, an entrepreneur who also established a brewery nearby. Although its official name is Skadarska, locals still refer to it as Bajloni.
The atmosphere can feel a bit worn, and the layout might not be the easiest to navigate, but it has its own charm, especially for those interested in seeing a slice of local life. Surrounded by lovely old merchant houses, the area is expected to undergo some development, hopefully preserving its traditional spirit while adding a bit more structure and comfort.
Overall, It worth a visit if you're nearby or exploring downtown Belgrade, especially for those interested in history and authentic local markets."

"It’s a small market but I was able to find a lot of things you were looking for. Also, fried salmon, sea bass and acorns looked very good."

"Nice market close to the town centre. Fresh fruit and vegetables, meat, fish, cheese, hardware and clothes. Can normally try before buying. Have to get there early for the best fresh produce."
