The historic indoor Public Market is one of the liveliest places in Florianopolis, a shopping center, meeting place and occasionally a venue for protests. There are more than 100 stalls selling clothes, ceramics, handcrafts, local specialties and fresh seafood. The yellow and white colonial building that houses the market was constructed at the turn of the 19th century. It replaced the previous market building which was destroyed in 1896\. A debate over the location of the original structure led to the creation of two political parties. Browse the stalls and listen to Brazilians bartering in their native tongue. Look out for some local art and sample some of the fish. The fresh catches of the day are among the market’s biggest draws. Put together a picnic for an afternoon or evening on the beach. At times, the market is extremely busy and seemingly chaotic. However, all of the stalls are numbered to help you find your way and easily revisit your favorite ones. Break off from your shopping expedition and visit one of the market’s bars or restaurants. Enjoy a meal washed down with a refreshing chope, a draft beer popular with locals and served in a small glass. Alternatively, sit outside in the attractive plaza. The square’s main feature is a fig tree that’s more than 100 years old. The market is open every week day, from midmorning until the early evening, and on Saturday mornings. There is no market on Sundays. The Public Market sits in the center of the city, just to the north of the Francisco Dias Velho Park. Nearby attractions include Bandeiras Lake, the Walter Lange Nautical Park and the Hercilio Luz Bridge. The city’s main bus terminal is just across the street. ## Plan a trip to see Public Market Price found within the past 48 hours.
