Markets in Valencia

Markets in Valencia have deep roots in the city's history, stretching back to when King Jaume I established public trading rights in 1238. Today the city's covered market halls and weekly street stalls keep that tradition alive, with fresh produce sourced from the surrounding L'Horta farmland.

The star of the show is the Mercado Central, one of Europe's largest food markets. Its striking modernist ironwork and stained glass dome make it worth a visit for the architecture alone. You can find the official guide to all Valencia's municipal markets on the Visit Valencia website.
