Budapests Great Market

This morning we had a choice of having free time or going on the bus tour of Budapest. As we had already seen most of that which we wanted to see we chose the free time and decided to visit the nearby “Great Market”. This is a permanent market in a huge building. It is principally a good market with sections predominantly or each food type, ie meat, fruit and veg and fish. There are also many souvenir type shops on the upper level much akin to a bazaar, the fish section was down stairs and so was the ALDI store. The meats were surprisingly well fat trimmed and very lean. Probably because the sold the big chunks of fat as a speciality item. An interesting market.
We adeparted from Budapest at 12:15 and we now steam on until midday tomorrow when we arrive in Vienna.Läs mer
