Day two we headed off to Queen Victoria Market in with our dear friend Ness.It is Victoria's premier open-air market. It's a thriving and vital place pulsating with life.
The friendly competition between stallholders, and their concern for customers, is what gives the Market its' Old World charm and the addictive power to draw millions of visitors each year.
The vibrant, cosmopolitan atmosphere of this historic site has endeared the Market to Melburnians for 130 years. The Market is probably best known for its huge variety of fresh produce and it's historic meat hall.
I just love a good, honest market like this. M x
ReplyDeleteThat's what I call a proper market.
