Candelaria Market
A covered neighbourhood market in Seville's Cerro Amate district with 25 stalls selling fresh produce, fish, meat, and dairy. Open Monday to Saturday from 8:30am.
Candelaria Market (Mercado de la Candelaria) is a covered municipal market on Calle Gaviota in Seville's Los Pajaritos neighbourhood. It's a neighbourhood food hall, not a tourist destination, serving the Cerro Amate district with daily staples. The market is open Monday to Saturday from 8:30am to 3pm with 25 stalls, and is one of the municipal markets in Seville that keeps local residents supplied throughout the week.
What to buy
The stalls cover the everyday essentials: fresh fruit and vegetables, meat and poultry, fish and seafood, bread, and cheese and dairy. There's also a bar inside where you can sit down for a cheap tapa or pick up something to eat on the way home, which makes it a useful stop for a quick lunch alongside your shopping.

Where to stay in Seville
Staying in the Santa Cruz neighbourhood puts you right in the heart of the old city, with Candelaria Market an easy walk away. For something more upscale, the Hotel Alfonso XIII is a classic choice that's hard to beat for location and atmosphere.
If you prefer a quieter base, Triana sits just across the river and gives you a great local feel, with good transport links to the market and the rest of the city.
