The Ballarò Market – An open air theatre

By: Maria Giulia Franco

It is said that to really know a city, it is not enough to visit its most famous monuments, but rather it is necessary to explore those places where the history, memory and traditions of its people continue to be perceptible and recognizable over time.

In Palermo, these places are its historic markets, which are open air and mainly food markets: La Vucciria, Ballarò and Il Capo. Far from being simple shopping areas, they have always represented the beating heart of the city, symbols of identity where food tells stories, customs and identities deeply rooted in time.
