For our one week stay in Wroclaw we needed to stock up on food especially fruit and vegetables. Having done our research we knew there was only one place to go'
Hala Targowa', the indoor market. To get there was only a ten minute walk from our city centre apartment just along
Plac Nowy Targ to where it joins the road called
Andrzeja Modrzewskiego -
Frycza, the market building is at this corner right opposite the
Sand Bridge which crosses the River
Odra.

The gloomy building exterior is constructed of red brick and dominates this busy corner but once inside you feel the atmosphere of a busy traditional market.

The ground floor is full of stalls selling a wide range of produce, you will have to go a long way to find a comparable selection of such quality.
Vegetable, fruits, meats, polish sausages, cheeses and flowers on the ground floor then arranged around the first floor balcony cobblers, lingerie, hairdressers, currency exchange booths, clothing etc .

Take a moment to rest at the balcony and
watch the market life below. If the sight of all this food has made you feel hungry then stop at the busy little
pierogi bar on your way out.
We made our way back to the apartment having bought far more than intended but happy knowing we would eat well the following week.
