Street markets on Lanzarote
Street markets are part of the local tradition and are often beautiful to look at.
Every village on Lanzarote has its own.
You can find local products or simple items there, but you can also take a tour of the stalls when you visit a particular place.
It is still an opportunity to enjoy a local tradition or to make an appointment for our visit to a village.
Who knows, maybe it’s a good opportunity to find a local wine or an excellent goat cheese?
