| Florence | San Lorenzo market open on Mondays? Posted: Tue April 15, 2008 06:00 AM UTC
Hi everyone,
I'm planning to go to Florence next month and I would like to visit San Lorenzo market and Central market. I looked at 5 different travel guide books - 2 wrote San Lorenzo market is closed on Mondays, 3 wrote it's open. What's true? Is San Lorenzo market open on Mondays? And what about public holidays? I didn't find any opening hours for Central market. So, is it open on Mondays? Thanks for your help! Best regards, Kiki |

I think the confusion lies in the fact that 'S Lorenzo market' means either a) the indoor food market (Mercato Centrale) which is closed on Mondays,
Or b) the stalls (clothes, leather, scarves, jewellery etc etc) which line the streets around the market building and which (I think) will be there on Mondays (or many/most of them anyway). Or c) both. Hence the open/not open thing in your guide books! The 'Central Market' is the Mercate Centrale in Piazza S Lorenzo, so is not an alternative venue.
