Porta Portese

Appia Antica, Aventino, Ostiense

Porta Portese
  • Address: Piazza di Porta Portese
  • Opening: Sunday from 6am to 2pm
The most famous Sunday market of the capital, it opens at six in the morning on the dot and disappears at two in the afternoon. Clothing, antiques, accessories, plants, music, household goods and toys are mixed up in a cauldron which, perhaps, has lost a bit of its lustre of the years. Be careful of pickpockets in this extremely crowded public space.
