The Rialto Market is open from Tuesday to Saturday morning, well, the stores remain open all days, but if you want to see the real fruit market and especially the colorful fish market, you must go early in the morning except Sunday and Monday. And ‘a must to enjoy the great vibrancy and color that animates this city, our advice is then to stop you and get a “cichetto” (glass of wine accompained to an appetizer) as do the Venetians, in the typical taverns in the side alleyways. In this market you can buy some good fruit and vegetables almost coming from lagoon islands, but do not touch the merchandise, before buying it unless. The Rialto area has also a lot of souvenir and traditional craft shops where you can find fantastic handmade carnival masks of leather or papier-mâché, jewelers, shoemakers and leather goods.
