Preobrazhensky MarketFruit and vegetable market

Moscow is an immense city with a bustling trade that inspires many colourful street markets. Preobrazhensky market is a meeting place for small and large-scale farmers and orchard keepers to sell freshly harvested fruits and vegetables, berries and mushrooms. The vendors have a curious tradition of tagging all their produce with hand-written notes with comments like, “Yummy” or “the best.” Whether you buy anything or not, it’s well worth the visit.
