Sao Paulo Municipal Market, Sao Paulo, State of San Paulo, Brazil
The Mercado Municipal de São Paulo, better known simply as the Mercadão, opened in 1933 and soon became a better place to shop for food than the nearby market on Rua 25 de março.
The Mercadão is the go-to place to buy fresh food, have a bite to eat, and meet up with friends.
All in all, there are over 1,600 people working there, in more than 300 booths, bringing in and pushing out 600 tons of food per day. That food comes in the shape of fresh fruits, veggies, grains, meats, spices, and more and a lot of it is free to be sampled!
