The market of Dijon is really worth a visit! The Halles de Dijon are worth a look. This building, with its metallic architecture dating from the end of the 19th century, was inspired by the old halles of Paris. Each arch is composed of animal heads (deer, ox, sheep) and mythological symbols such as the representation of the goddess of the harvest. The colors and scents enchant your senses as soon as you enter this lively market. Thanks to its large choice of regional products and its numerous restaurants, everyone will find something to their liking.
The Halles of Dijon is open every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. You can buy the best food products from France and elsewhere. On Thursdays, the market is only held indoors, on other days, the stalls are spread out in the surrounding streets.
There are several cheese stands, artisan bakers and pastry chefs. The stalls are full of all kinds of meats, vegetables and pies. If you love food, you will surely love this beautiful market and you will walk around amazed!
Burgundy is famous for its mustard, its black currant… They are also very inventive where they propose snail cakes! I am not joking!
There is a great cafe in the middle of the market, but if it is crowded, there are many cafes and restaurants nearby where you can spend several hours eating delicious food and drinking excellent local wines.
