This modest little market is nothing more than a few rows of stalls down at the water’s edge at the bottom of Las Ramblas.  Specialising in antiques and collectables the market attracts a small stream of bargain hunters and enthusiasts.  Some interesting displays of well kept memorabilia from the last century or so are worth a peek, even if you are not interested in buying.

I’d like to say there is something for everyone in between the First World War medals and Spice Girls badges but that would be a lie.  However, if used post cards are your thing or even retro football cards then get yourself down there for an afternoon of haggling.
