Antequera’s Tuesday Outdoor Market

I think that most of the coastal resorts in this area have market days for tourists on Saturdays and Sundays. Antequera’s street market is for its residents and is held on Tuesdays from 9 - 2 pm, behind the bullring.

The resort markets tend to sell ‘branded’ and more expensive clothing and handbags, handmade jewellery, and items for presents to take home as souvenirs.

In Antequera the market focuses on the needs of the local population like Mexican tianguis, so they have quite a cross-section of goods.

Clothing takes up probably the largest area of the market. There were stalls offering t-shirts, shorts, underwear, shoes, jeans, shirts and dresses for women. There were at least two large stalls selling fabrics for curtains, table cloths, and bedding.

And it also had several stalls for fruit and vegetables, as well as smaller areas for spices, candies and olives. Prices were good.

We ended up buying some sports socks for Chris, olives (after trying a lot of different kinds!), some candies and asparagus.Okumaya devam et
