Mercato Nuovo by Gypsystravels
Despite its name the New Market has been around since 1551 and was known as the Straw Market because it sold rafia (straw) goods. Today this market sells everything from clothing, handbags, shoes and leather good, along with tourist souvernirs.It is thought that by touching the little bronze boar "Il Porcellino" it will bring good luck. So go ahead, touch away.
