Plac (The Market)

My host mom and I visited the Plac (Market) to look around and pick up a few items.

The Plac is popular morning market as well as a gathering place. Saturday and Sunday mornings are most crowded. We didn't go until late morning so it was less crowded.

You can find fresh cottages and cheeses, eggs, vegetables, bread products, spices, meats, seafood, and imported fruits.
