Antique Markets
Apart from shopping in the usual small shops and department stores, one way to really experience Italy is to visit some of their local markets. The antique markets sell everything from jewelry to antique farm implements, and you can always find a small treasure that you can fit into your suitcase to take home. As well as the regular markets listed, there are many more that take place to celebrate special celebrations. I will continue to add markets as I discover them!
