Boqueria Market
Ramblas100, Piso 1º, 08002 Barcelona, Spain
Description:
Boqueria Market is not just a trading platform in Barcelona, it is a local attraction, the history of which begins as far back as 1237. Back then, the shopping area was not an official place of trade, people from nearby villages brought here caught fish, homemade wine, vegetables and fruits collected in their own garden. Then the local authorities realized that this way of organizing trade is very convenient, and fixed its status officially.
Nothing has changed over time. All products on the market are still the first freshness and the highest quality, and the range amazes even gourmets - a large selection of fish, wine, oysters, fruits and vegetables, which are sold almost for nothing.
Boqueria still honors traditions and preserves the atmosphere of the centuries-old past.
