A stall at the market The markets are rich in seasonal fruits and vegetables, and are the place to go for an insight into the island's culture. David Ewing / age fotostock
These lively areas that lay out fruits and vegetables from the island also offer the opportunity to mingle with the local population. Going to the market each morning is a deeply-rooted tradition in Sicily and the business streets bustle with activity until midday. To laze about in an original setting, it is preferable to visit the markets of smaller towns, Cefalů or Sciacca rather than those of Palermo or Catania.
