Things to See & Do
Visit the fish shop where the river flows just outside the window, sample Slovenian cheeses inside the main building and pick up fresh fruit for a snack. There is also a great selection of cut flowers, mushrooms and hand-made souveniers.
Rest your feet at the cafe situated in the opening in the colonnade which overlooks the river and the Dragon Bridge. Sip a cappuccino or an espresso which are delicious.
When to Go
The market is the largest on Saturday mornings in the spring, summer and fall.
