Markets

Markets are where Cape Town is most itself. Some are weekend institutions that people plan a Saturday around, spilling out of old industrial buildings and harbour sheds with a queue at the coffee and a band somewhere in the corner. Others are permanent halls open most days, useful when you want the same food without the crush.

The three below are the weekend ones worth building a morning around, and each has a distinctly different character. The rest of the collection is the more permanent kind, open through the week and easy to drop into.
