The main food and clothes market is always an exciting event to visit when you are in Poitiers, as it sees the lively streets filled with traders and the locals vying for a bargain. The market is on every day of the week in the rather grand surroundings of the Place du Charles de Gaulle at the heart of the city, and is a n excellent place to pick up some regional specialities and get a feel for the way people in this city live.
