The stalls group broadly into four categories: handicrafts, jewelry, leather goods and footwear, and clothing and textiles. Each trader sets their own stock, so the exact range varies from one market day to the next.

Where to stay in Santiago de Compostela

Staying in the old town puts you closest to the action, and it's hard to beat the atmosphere of waking up a short walk from the cathedral. Try Parador de Santiago de Compostela for something special, or Hotel Monumento San Francisco for a quieter but equally central option.

If you'd prefer more budget-friendly choices, look at places around Ensanche, the modern district just south of the historic centre. You can walk into the old town in under ten minutes from there, which keeps things easy on market days.
