Borgo Vecchio

At the Borgo Vecchio between Piazza Sturzo and Piazza Ucciardone, Palermo has an Arab mini casbah that draws in the young. Unlike most of the other (and better known) markets like Ballarò, La Vucciria or Il Capo what close early, the Borgo Vecchio stays open until the evening hours. Many people like to shop here before heading out for pre-dinner drinks, or browse the stalls late at night for special bargains.

The Borgo Vecchio market is still quite non touristy, where you can find some nice things for few euro, self caterers will find fruit, vegetables, meat, cheese and fresh fish.
