Just about every culture we have visited has an market in the heart of the city. We remember some of them for sensations; the tomatoes in Sicily from a tiny town down the coast from Syracusa, the extraordinary flowers from the greenhouses of Carpenteria in the brilliant sun on a Santa Barbara street corner, the wagons filled with onions from the villages outside of Valparaiso and the gleaming stalls of the vendors in Adelaide. Alicante’s market has the most extraordinary seafood of any we have visited so far…vendors animated. The brilliant colors of fish and crustaceans dazzle. Some stalls are five-deep in customers visiting and waiting their turn.
We want to walk with you through the market seeing it as we did. Enjoy the panorama.
