Established in 1916, this huge food market always draws enormous crowds and has a lively atmosphere. Built on a long esplanade over the river, it is a wonderful place to stroll, look, and buy an interesting array of international food. As you approach Karsplatz, the market's most exclusive goods are on offer. Prime quality meats, fish, and produce stalls line the area where the city's well heeled splash out on expensive foodstuffs. Mixed in with these gourmet ingredients are many juice bars and the city's most famous sauerkraut stall. Moving down through the market, the scene changes to Chinese and Indian cuisine supplies. This section's icon is Zur Eisernen Zeit, an eccentric pagoda style bar with equally remarkable clientele. Schleifmuhlgasse crosses the market here and stalls begin to ask more modest prices for their produce.
