La Boqueria

Mercat de San Josep de la Boqueria is probably one of the most fabulous open-air markets you will ever see (or won't see if you haven't visited Barcelona and don't plan on visiting).  It's right next to Las Ramblas so it's ALWAYS super busy.  Many years ago, tourists would walk in, take pictures, and maybe if the vendors were lucky, buy an apple-- not very good for business.  Since then, the fruit vendors sell zumos (juices) of every flavor imaginable so even more tourists flock to the market and go shopping.  There are so many stalls, shoppers can find just about everything: meat, cheese, seafood (raw and cooked), candy, nuts, fruits, and vegetables.  Feast your eyes on the photos I've taken and be sure not to drool on your computer!
