Palermo Market

The most famous market in Palermo is the Vucciria market. Palermo's historical ties with the Arab world and it's proximity to North Africa add to it's amazing array of colourful fruits, vegetables, meats and fish, with vendors noisily telling anyone who will listen about their many bargains of the day!!  As well as all the vendors, we happened on a photographer taking pictures of a young ballerina! As we were there on a Sunday, we also had the opportunity to witness a family taking their young daughter to the church beside the market for her first communion!!!
