  Does what it says on the tin – it’s a marketplace.  - This marketplace is set in some old adjoining Zeppelin hangers and they sell lots of fruit, flowers, meat, clothes etc.
It is open every day, but can get crowded... read more in parts but is quite interesting to wander round and there is are tons of fruit there. As in all markets there are pick pockets operating according to the commentary on the canal boat ride that we took. Whilst you are there try some of the halvah there. I only knew that they had sesame ones but here there are many other types.
This is also a good place to have a snack/lunch as it’s cheaper than the old town area.

  Local market  - Typical big local market, it was close to our hotel so we spent a couple of hours there. Good selection of local produce but nothing amazing

  Massive food market  - This massive food market complex is worth to visit. They sell local products from fish to cheese, fruits and vegetables. Close by they also sell other items for example clothes... read more and since we visited during the Christmas season they had also a lot of seasonal products. There is a quite big food court with several diverse small restaurants/bars but we didn´t eat there as it was not our time for a meal and we wanted to continue exploring the city.

  Interesting meander.  - An expansive market in 5 hangers where zeppelins were made - pretty cool setting. It continues outside to be the largest in Europe. A draw for locals as much as... read more tourists. The food area is one to explore and is great for lunch. Busier in the morning as the stalls start to wind down from early afternoon.

  Riga Central Market  - Excellent food market . From fish, meat , vegetables and flowers it has everything . Lots of retail outlets on upper floors selling typical market trinkets and clothing.

  Loved it.  - Probably my favorite thing I did in Riga, love going to these types of markets when I visit major cities and seeing what the locals eat.

It's a large... read more area over multiple sheds, each have a great range of things being sold, catering for mainly locals you get great prices and variety, I had lunch here most days and the choices were very good.

Note that it's not just inside but outside stalls, also great for daily fruit and veggies!!

  Nice  - Nice day out. Lots of different food. Traditional latvian food. Fresh fruit and veg and vendors where very helpfull. Good day out

  My visit to the Central Market  - Spent a few hours at the market in March but the weather was cold and not many vendors out on the street. Very close to the center of Riga... read more and to all public transportation. Definitely check it out 👍

  Huge market with everything  - Something for everyone, local & tourist.
So many food options, meat market, fish market, cheese, spices etc

An assault on the senses, but definitely worth a visit
