Plainpalais Flea Market

Bargains galore at a famous flea market
Word to the wise: Savvy shoppers can pick up some genuine bargains, but you must be prepared to haggle hard.

Join the hordes of locals and visitors who comb this market every Wednesday and Saturday and leave no stall unturned, piled as they are with vintage clothes, records, bric-a-brac, paintings and, from time to time, genuine antiques.
What makes this market particularly interesting is that some of the international workers attached to the United Nations and other expatriate organisations come here to sell items they have collected from all over the world.
