Great Market Hall
9th. district Fővám square
Situated
on the Pest side of the Szabadság Bridge, is a remarkable building which should
not be missed. Planned by Gustav Eiffel (yes... the man who built the tower of
the same name, and the Nyugati Train Station), huge arched windows cast light in
an occasionally angelic fashion across the many meat and vegetable stalls which
line it?s spacious aisles. This is camera happy tourist heaven. There is also a
very useful grocer in the basement selling every non-Hungarian ingredient under
the sun. Following its complete restoration in 1994 it has become one of the
most popular and visited shopping sites among tourist circles. Open:
06:00-18:00, Mon: 06:00-17:00, Sat: 06:00-14:00, Sun: Closed

The Chinese Market
8th. district Kőbányai
street
Whether you want to experience East Asia meets Eastern Europe or you
just want to buy an astonishingly cheap pair of socks, the Chinese market is
worth a visit. Consisting of three to four narrow 600m-long aisles, this market
is literally packed with just about every item of clothing and household
appliance you could imagine, though the range is surprisingly limited. The
quality of some produce is worthy of the 'Made in China' label and haggling is a
must. 10 minutes from Blaha Lujza tér on tram No.28. Open every day:
09:00-16:00
