On the way to the beach you pass from time to time the weekly markets next to Passeig de Joan de Borbó. Normally I am not so much interested in these kind of markets, more impressive is the steady Mercat de la Boqueria at the Ramblas.
Both are frequented by tourists, but the products at the different weekly markets are much cheaper. And it‘s not so crowded.
I like the pure soap they offer, the Savon de Marseille. As my skin is sensitive I always use non perfumed soaps or shower gels. Also the olive oil is in a good quality. Most I like the churros von chocolate, the pasta like sweet baked lines which you dip in hot melted chocolate. A very Spanish sweet.
