The market is vibrant and delightful. It's full of locally produced fruit, veg, and food of all types. There are some good cafes around the edge. There's a lovely atmosphere and it's a very friendly place.

A very small chapel that is carved into a ledge but the history behind it is big! Apparently, the stone Madonna found down the stairs is said to have stone coming from around 2000 years ago and that the way the stone is crafted is not indigenous to Europe but rather the Middle East. This is the archaeology behind it. However, Catholics believe that the Madonna was carved by St. Joseph (Mary's husband) and then brought to Europe by rulers.
