Mercat Raval

Handicrafts and more at this popular local market
Noteworthy for: Mercat Raval gives young designers and artisans a chance to display their wares.

Every weekend this small group of independent designers and artisans set up shop along the Rambla del Raval. Just as popular with locals, expect to find everything from harem pants to hammocks, handicrafts to handmade books.
While it's not exactly cheap, at least you can rest assured of getting an exclusive item. If all that shopping makes you peckish, head to the tent that looks like its come straight out of the Arabian Nights for mint tea and scrumptious baklava.
