Foz Market
Fairs and Markets
Mercado da Foz, the name by which Mercado da Foz do Douro is commonly known, is the most iconic in the western part of the city, and daily, from Monday to Saturday, it serves the entire local community, in addition to the population that goes there purposefully from the rest of the city and neighbouring municipalities.
Located in Rua de Diu, where tradition and innovation meet, in a facility that keeps the proximity to the small horticultural producers in the parish and the fresh fish that comes from the sea, a short distance away.
There are butchers, fishmongers, fresh produce, florists. Preserving its traditional image of a fresh products market, Mercado da Foz has been revitalised, in recent years, by incorporating some activities of local shops, such as cobblers and haberdashery and handicraft shops, always privileging small businesses, and also encouraging the opening of restaurant spaces that would buy fresh products sold at the market.
