The Rome IndexMarkets in Rome
Every type of market — food, flea, antiques, clothes — and when to go.
Food markets
Mercato Testaccio (covered, best produce and ready food), Campo de' Fiori (flowers and produce, weekday mornings), Mercato di Piazza San Cosimato in Trastevere (neighbourhood market, low tourist presence), Nuovo Mercato Esquilino (most diverse in the city — Asian, African and Middle Eastern alongside Italian).
Flea & vintage
Porta Portese (Sundays, huge, Trastevere), Via Sannio (daily, clothing and surplus near San Giovanni), Borghetto Flaminio (Sundays, curated, near Piazza del Popolo).
Antiques & books
Via dei Coronari near Piazza Navona has the highest concentration of antique dealers in Rome. Largo della Fontanella di Borghese runs a print and book market most mornings.
