Lisbon: Praca do Comercio Handicraft Market

12/10/2016

Shopping at the handicraft market under Praca do Comercio's arcades. Lisbon, Portugal.
Every weekend, Lisbon's largest square plays host to a handicraft market.
On weekends, located under Praça do Comércio's north arcades, to the left and right of the Rua Augusta Arch, you will find a small handicraft market. Here a variety of vendors sell a range of high-quality wares, such as clothing, souvenirs, children's toys, homewares and gifts; sold at a reasonable price.​​
​
The market is open every Sunday from 9 am to 3 pm and is also open on Saturdays in Summer from from 8 am to 2 pm.

The handicraft market is located under the arcades to the left and right of the arch.
I happened upon the handicraft market by chance whilst seeking shelter from the periodic rain Lisbon was experiencing on the day. Always happy to stumble across a market, 30 minutes and one handmade Portuguese cork bag later, I walked away a very happy customer.
