Spain - Madrid

El Rastro

A Karen Brown Recommendation

There is a colorful Sunday flea market, called El Rastro, a few blocks south of the Plaza Mayor on Calle Ribera de Curtidores. Absolutely everything is sold here, both in permanent shops and temporary booths, and madrileños and tourists alike shop here in droves. You may even find some genuine antiques at bargain prices, but “buyer beware” is the rule here. Haggling over prices (regateando) is appropriate at El Rastro, unlike most other places in Spain.
