Weekday Market in Trastevere

Weekday Market in Trastevere

If you happen to be staying in the family friendly neighborhood of Trastevere stop by the weekday market in Piazza San Cosimato. Its open Monday through Friday from sun-up to 12. This market offers a wide variety of produce, fruit, meats, cheeses and spices. Also with a park right next to the market its a great place to bring the kids for a fun excursion. The vendors are very friendly and more than willing to give out samples and explain their product. The ambiance reminds me of central park on a sunny afternoon. Noisy, boisterous and welcoming. There are kids running around the market playing calcio (soccer), teenagers sitting and smoking and adults wandering around the market place, almost like a scene from La Vita Buona. So if you want a picturesque family day out, visit the Weekday Market in Trastevere.
