Found at Plaça de les Glories, the market – which dates back to the 14th century – is the perfect antidote to some of the city’s more glamorous shopping to be found along Passeig de Gràcia and Rambla de Catalunya. Here it’s all about musty-smelling vintage clothing, dust-covered vinyl records and books, and bric-a-bric treasures that could have easily ended up in the bin. The upholstered furniture on sale here is our personal favourite.
