It is the largest al fresco fruit and vegetables market of Europe, but this is just a formula (that in any case any Turin resident will never tire of repeating with some pride). Actually, the Porta Palazzo market is above all one of the most authentic spots of the city, a unique mix that puts together the old madamine, Turin ladies arriving each morning to buy cheap produce, the new Chinese peasants, the farmers from the Piedmont valleys and the skilled Arab sellers. Even if you do not want to buy anything, come for a stroll to inhale a multi-ethnic Turin. In addition to grocery, clothing, household products, toys and specialties from all over the world are on sale.
