    Mercato Centrale

    Inside an iron-and-glass structure dating to 1874 lies the oldest and largest food market in Florence. Stalls on the 1st floor are devoted to fresh meat and fish as well as salumi (cold cuts), cheese, fresh pasta, olive oil, jam, truffle butter and more. For the pride of Tuscan produce, head upstairs to the mezzanine. You may have to negotiate through a confusion of makeshift stands of clothes and leathergoods to reach the market.
