Mercado dos Lavradores



























This photo shows a detail of the Mercado dos Lavradores (Farmers' market), the main in the city and most emblematic. For years it was much frequented by residents in Funchal for weekly purchases of fish, vegetables, fruits and flowers. But with the arrival of large supermarkets and other proposals differentials, began to lose folgor. Today it remains active, as an icon of the city.

Esta foto mostra um pormenor do Mercado dos Lavradores, o principal da cidade e mais emblemático. Há anos era muito frequentado pelos residentes no Funchal para as compras semanais de peixe, legumes, frutas e flores. Mas, com a chegada dos grandes supermercados e outras propostas diferenciadoras, começou a perder folgor. Hoje mantém-se activo e como um ícone da cidade.
