Through the week, the city market is an option for finding fresh fruit and vegetables. The place really comes into its own on Sunday, when it hosts a popular outdoor flea market filled with old books, postcards, paintings and icons. Insiders know that serious buyers need to come early, but anytime before noon can be entertaining. There's also a popular sausage stand here for late-night street food.
