Hello everyone, today I will take you to see the Mercat Dels Encants market in Barcelona, where there are many collectibles for sale and auction in this magical place. It is an old market that has been renovated many times. It has a long history at the gates of the Barcelona city wall and has moved many times. At first, it was in LesEncants, outside the wall. Then they moved to PlancaNova in Drassanes, on Rambla deles Flore, around the state of Dixontoni and finally at Placade les Flors.
Until 2013, a prominent building was built by the architect. The distinctive feature is the 25-meter high golden glass roof. The building opens to the wind in all four directions, allowing you to fully enjoy outdoor activities without feeling too crowded. This market has more than three hundred stalls, open every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 9 am to 8 pm, and auctions are held from 8 am to 9 am on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. This auction has been a long-standing tradition and is the only place in Europe that still maintains this ancestral practice. The auctions are held in the morning, which means that early risers have an advantage in finding the items they want. After that, the auctions are sold.
We went to this market at 4 pm on Monday afternoon. We didn't plan to come here, but because we were passing by and were struck by the striking glass building. When we looked around, we saw that it was a market. I wanted socks, so I walked to find what I wanted. But as I walked further, I looked down to the next floor and was amazed by what I saw. There were many second-hand shops downstairs. The items were old items for collectors, lined up on the floor in a dazzling manner. I like old things like this, so I didn't miss walking over to take a closer look. Walking along the way, I saw many interesting products, but I probably didn't buy any because some of them were unnecessary. But I like to walk around and look.
Some things I've never seen before, I found them here. Some things look shockingly old, but they're still in good condition. Accessories, collectibles, small and large items, everything looks interesting. No matter where you go, you'll see these products everywhere. Not only that, there are clothes, both second-hand and new. The prices aren't expensive, but some old things I don't know the price because some of them aren't labeled.
This is probably the second-hand market that I like the most because I like old things like this. They look charming and unique, hard to find. Some things are no longer available today because time has changed, so some things have disappeared. But this place is a good place for collectors. I wanted to spend a long time here, but I couldn't because I had to hurry back to my accommodation. But just seeing them was worth it because they're what I like.
And this is the atmosphere of the Mercat Dels Encants market in Barcelona, Spain, which is another interesting place for those who love collecting old things. Anyone who wants products can buy and sell normally and auction them. I hope everyone enjoys and is happy with my posts. Thank you for following. hope it is a good day
