Markets
Il Mercato (the Market) which takes place every Sunday morning near lakeside is the absolute highlight of the week and some would argue that the market alone makes a visit to Cannobio worthwhile.
From 8 am the piazza comes alive with visitors, who come in their hundreds, Walk along the innumerable and tastefully laid out stalls, selling everything from beautiful Italian coats and clothes, to leather goods, toys, ceramics, paintings and cookware, is a real threat for the senses.
The huge fresh food area is especially interesting, with a variety of large and colourful stalls selling every fruit and vegetable imaginable There are cheese stalls with Parmesan slabs piled high, and salami stalls where you are encouraged to taste before you buy. There are meat and fish stalls where the locals haggle and argue on the quality and price of everything.
Market from 08.00 - 13.00 o’clock.
