My extraordinary market friday in "La Boqueria" Barcelona!

in #food7 years ago (edited)

Dear steemians,

Today I went to one of the best markets in Europe "La Boqueria". Let's discover it together!

This market is located on the famous "Rambla" of Barcelona. It is open from Monday to Saturday from 8 am to 8:30 pm.

The US news network CNN places the Boqueria as the best market in the world. In a ranking made up of several markets around the world, from the fish market in Tokyo to Union Square in New York, the Barcelona market gets the best rating.

Coinciding with the dawn of the 21st century, the market has been reborn in commercial terms, and is now an international name of reference. This is shown by the great number of prizes it has won, which include the prize for the best market in the world, awarded by the World Markets Congress held in 2005 in Washington DC.

When you arrive, it's a paradise for your senses! You will find incredible odors and colors. The sellers offer varied, local and quality food. You can find exotic products there too. The prices are displayed and do not hesitate to compare between the stalls.
