Markets in Rome

Markets in Rome, Rome, Italy (B)

On this page of The Travel Bunny’s free Rome travel guide, you can discover the permanent and temporary markets in Rome. You should really visit a couple of them, to get a taste of the local life.

Campo de’ Fiori is a picturesque market in the heart of Rome. This medieval square has a dark past, as the serious statue of Giordano Bruno reminds us. He was burned for his heresy here. And this is also the spot of many other executions that took place during the Inquisition.

Nowadays, during the day, you can explore Campo de’ Fiori while searching for fruit, vegetables, fish, and flowers. At night, it turns into a lively meeting spot for both locals and travelers. Besides many cool bars and restaurants, Campo de’ Fiori also hosts live street performances.
