#3 of 8 Markets & Food Halls in Madrid

Known formassiveauthenticlocalTetuán

Claimed to be the largest covered food market in Europe, Maravillas is a sprawling, no-frills market in the working-class Tetuán district where Madrileños do serious weekly shopping. The sheer scale and variety — hundreds of stalls selling everything from live shellfish to exotic produce — is staggering. It's entirely unglamourized and requires some navigation, but the prices and authenticity are unmatched in the city.
