Mercato di Porta Palazzo
Meilleur moment pour visiter
Early morning on weekdays when stalls open for the freshest produce and smaller crowds. Saturdays bring the fullest atmosphere but expect larger, louder crowds and longer lines.
Conseils budget
Market access is free, no entry fee or pass required; bring cash and small change as many vendors prefer euros. Save money by buying seasonal fruit from producers and eating at food stalls rather than sit-down restaurants.

À propos
Faits rapides: More than 1,000 stalls squeeze into a grid of cobbled alleys and open squares, offering everything from trumpet-shaped porcini to secondhand vinyl records. A mash of citrus, earthy mushroom and roasted coffee aromas hangs over the stalls, while vendors call bargains in Italian, Arabic and Romanian.
Points forts: A dedicated cheese row overflows with more than 600 varieties on Saturdays, including alpine Raschera and tiny tomettes, as small producers fly in crates by dawn to keep shelves stacked. Near the fish stalls a vendor nicknamed 'Nonno Marco' shouts orders by name and sells smoked mackerel for 4 euros a kilo, customers praising the briny, smoky bite.
Conseils d'initiés
- Wear comfortable shoes and a light waterproof layer, as the main market is outdoors and weather can change quickly.
- Arrive between 8 and 10 am on weekdays for the freshest catches and thinner crowds.
- Aim your camera at the vivid fruit and vegetable rows and the covered fabric stalls near Borgo Dora for the most photogenic scenes.
- Skip the souvenir stalls along the square's outer edge and head to fish, cheese or sausage vendors for authentic local flavours.

Avez-vous entendu parler des visites à pied gratuites ?
Après avoir voyagé dans plus de 30 pays, il y a une chose que j'aurais aimé qu'on me dise dès le premier jour, et cela a complètement changé ma façon de découvrir les nouvelles villes.
Les visites à pied gratuites. Oui, vraiment gratuites. Pas besoin de carte de crédit. Pas de piège.

J'ai fait ces visites dans des dizaines de villes et elles ont été le point fort de presque tous mes voyages. Si vous visitez Turin, Italy, faites-le le premier jour. Vous me remercierez plus tard.
