There are few things more picturesque than the vivid colours of an early morning food market. The sights, smells, sounds and scenes are reason enough to visit Bolhão Market, and if you happen to pick up some fruit along the way then well done you. People have been buying and selling here since 1850, and some of the older faces may have been around just as long. The market is open all day long throughout the week, but is closed on Sundays.
