The Indoor Market at Narodni trg by Ekaterinburg
Before we reached the open-air market a beautiful green building caught my eye. It immediately reminded me of the indoor market in Bratislava so I decided to climb up the two flights of steps to check it out. It was indeed an an indoor market though there were cafes there also. I'm wondering if the same rules apply here as seem to apply to the food market in Rovinj. In Rovinj, there's a notice at the market stating that no meat or fish can be sold there and these can be bought in the shops round the edge of the square. There were some shops in this lovely airy building though not as many as I'd expected. The back wall has a huge colourful mural and there's an interesting sculpture of woman in the centre. None of the guideboks or web pages I've read on Pula mention this building and I would love to know the significance of the statue and the mural. The statue, I feel, coud be just a shopper but maybe it's a suitcase she's carrying in which case it could be something quite different. I wonder .........
I really enjoyed both the indoor and outdoor markets here.
