Consejos para el presupuesto
Entry is free. Bring small bills in cash, many stalls don't accept cards. Shop for produce and cheese in the main hall for the best prices, not the tourist-facing stalls near the entrances.

Acerca de
Datos rápidos: Más de 300 vendedores llenan este animado mercado, ofreciendo productos frescos, quesos caseros y carnes ahumadas del campo circundante. Los lugareños vienen aquí desde principios de los años 70 para abastecerse de todo, desde verduras cultivadas en huertos hasta pan de centeno hecho a mano.
Destacados: Baja al sótano, a la sección de carnes y lácteos, donde una docena de vendedores venden requesón llamado varškė, aún tibio y envuelto en tela, recién traído de la granja. El olor salado y agrio de los pepinos fermentados y los barriles de chucrut te golpea antes de que siquiera llegues a las escaleras del sótano.
Consejos de expertos
- Bring your own reusable bag, vendors rarely provide plastic bags and you'll likely buy more than expected.
- Skip the upstairs cafes and grab a coffee from the kiosk near the main entrance for a fraction of the price.
- Look for the women selling wild mushrooms and berries in season, they source directly from forests in eastern Lithuania.
- Visit the fish counter in the basement around 11 a.m. when the day's catch is freshly displayed.
