Reasons to go
Full description
Mercat dels Encants pairs one of Barcelona's oldest trading traditions with striking modern architecture, its enormous mirrored roof reflecting the maze of stalls selling furniture, antiques, books, and secondhand clothing below. It draws both serious collectors hunting for pieces and casual visitors drawn in by the building itself, and reviewers note that only part of the market is geared toward everyday thrifting.
A 4.2 rating from nearly 4,000 reviews and strong culture and aesthetic scores reflect a spot valued for its design as much as its bargains.

Absolutely stunned how cheap things you can get here. Ofcourse some of them are scams but if you choose what you need wisely then there can never be a better deal to buy classic, historic and aesthetic looking stuffs i found here. So sad that i couldn't take as much stuffs as i wanted with me on the flight. To Anyone…
