Valencia (Valencia), Spain |
The Mercat Central (Central Market) of Valencia is considered one of the largest and oldest European markets still running. It began its construction during the modernist movement in 1914 using iron, brick, stone, marble, ceramic tiles and mosaics and was originally meant to hold 959 stands for the sale of fresh products. Designed by Francesc Guàrdia i Vial and Alexandre Soler i March, both trained at the Architecture School in Barcelona, this beautiful market is a treat for the eyes and definitely worth visiting.
