There are many street markets in the towns of Spain and can be found almost every day of the week. These markets cater for a wide range of goods and articles, some offer antiques and bric-a-brac whilst many offer the fresh fruit and vegetable produce of their particular region.
Hours change considerably within each town. Most usually open in the morning, some during the afternoon and just the odd one or two during the evening.
Inclement weather can also sometimes cause a market to close early or even not open at all.
