Spain's glorious markets: the cathedrals of the senses - 0 views

  • The Antón Martín market is in the heart of Madrid, with access from Santa Isabel street and Duque de Fernán Núñez, and the Doré passage, where the National Film Library is located, which used to house the old cinema Doré. The market was built in 1941 and it has a surface area of some 4,500 square metres, including some 70 stalls, of which 17 are fruit shops, 10 meat markets, 9 fishmongers, 7 sell chickens and the remainder other food produce, products and services. Another market that deserves a visit is the Chamberí, located in the neighbourhood of Madrid of the same name, in a residential area serving the centre of the city. It was inaugurated in 1943, and has a surface area of some 2,500 metres.

  • While Valencia is clued up to new technologies, the Boqueria, the emblematic market situated in the Ramblas of Barcelona, has developed a novelty for the tourist and sells for the reasonable price of 5 euros, fruit peeled and ready to eat, or stupendous milkshakes whose fruit content is chosen by the client and freshly crushed on the spot.

  • THE first thing to do when arriving at a Spanish city is to ask the residents for its municipal market.
  • The extra bonus, which doesn’t come with the ripe tomatoes or beans, is the chance to study the sociological character of the locals, because the way in which the salespeople and vendors interact with their clients says a lot about the commercial and open character of Spaniards, and above all, Mediterraneans.
  • Spain is one of the European countries blessed with a privileged gastronomy, but the best places to appreciate its culinary diversity are its local markets – authentic cathedrals of the senses.
  • One must keep in mind that all these markets grew out of street markets, that is to say, they were mobile events held in the open air
  • The Central Market of Valencia (main photo) is located in the heart of the city, in what used to be an avenue based along a tributary of the river Turia, (since in Roman times Valencia was an island city).
  • The central market and its environment are plagued with popular historical legends. The church is also known as the ‘church of the rascals’, because child thieves, that stole food from the market for their own consumption as well as to resell, hid there.
  • Also in Barcelona is the market of Santa Caterina. This is situated in the centre of the Ciutat Vella, or old city, in the neighbourhood barrio of la Ribera, and it is true to say that the market of Santa Caterina has been testimony to the entire history of Barcelona. As in many other cases, the history of this market begins with the demolition of a convent, in this case that of Santa Caterina, to make way for a jug market, placed on the outskirts of this convent because in it there was a well whose water provided a miraculous cure against marsh fever.
