This is Palermo’s bustling historic open-air street market where you’ll find an amazing array of exotic vegetables and fruit, meat, cheese, tantalizing street food, and goods from both Italy and North Africa. While each of the four historic quarters of Palermo have their own market, the Ballaro is the most famous. Popular with both locals and tourists alike, it’s a can’t miss attraction. You’ll be welcomed in with shouts of wares which will alert you you’ve hit the right space. Don’t miss the pane e panelle, which is Palermo’s famous chickpea fritters, and try everything you can see along the way.
