I had a chance to spend a few days in Riga, Latvia, this month and took time to go over to the city's large Central Market. Filled with Saturday shoppers and pretty friendly market venders, including the young helper above, the market was full of signs of autumn, so I wanted to share a bit of what I saw. Starting with mushrooms, mushrooms, mushrooms, all kinds, all colors.
Fruits of the season: cranberries, apples, pears, grapes, plums and more.
Plus of course, the vegetables that tell us the long winter is coming.
But who can tell me what these stringy things at right are?
Riga has a rich fishing history, and a big fish section in the market, fresh, dried and smoked and a small cafe serving turbot and eel.
And of course, pickled all kinds of things.
And just a few more photos. Riga is such a great city--including the market. Enjoy!
