Street life
Street markets have been around for centuries. They are centres for shopping and business deals, and great for people-watching. Every city, town and village in the world has some kind of street market. However, there are some that stand out as being world-class. Let Travel Today be your guide …
Hong Kong
Hong Kong has got many amazing and unusual street markets. The street market around Upper Lascar Row is very popular with tourists. One particular stall is popular with locals – it’s run by a man called Uncle Szeto. He sells all sorts of things at his stall: old family photographs, vintage postcards and an impressive collection of Bruce Lee film posters! The market is open on Saturdays. Kowloon market is the place to go if you want to eat food from south-east Asia, as this is the neighbourhood where most people from that region of the world live. It’s open every day. At the Apliu Street market, which specializes in electronics, you can buy nearly new and vintage cameras at a stall run by a Chinese man called Ng Wai. He also sells lots of second-hand camera parts. The stall is open daily.
Marrakech
Marrakech has some of the most amazing souks in the world. These markets are a major part of Moroccan life. Shoppers can buy Moroccan crafts, traditional leather sandals, food or clothes. It’s an exciting experience with lots of colours, sounds and smells. Beautiful carpets and rugs are sold in the markets and it’s a pleasure to browse these carpet shops. When you step inside a carpet seller’s shop you will be treated to mint tea and long conversations. The carpets are hand woven with wool and are famous for their intricate designs and bright colours. Shoppers are advised to bargain with sellers to get the best prices.

It’s easy to get lost in the markets because they have many different pathways and sections, so it’s a good idea to go with a guide.
Berlin
Some of Berlin’s best shopping can be found in its numerous street markets. They sell everything from vintage clothes to antique furniture. There are some great bargains to be had. The market along the Street of 17 June takes place every weekend. You can buy second-hand items and also new art and design objects, including handmade clothes by new German designers. Flowmarkt has a fantastic location along the canal and has a reputation for being very fashionable. You can buy both second-hand and new products. There are also lots of places to sit, eat and enjoy the atmosphere. The market is also an informal music festival and shoppers can listen to music while they eat. The market is open every first and third Sunday of the month.
