Padova Part 2


I absolutely love the fruit and vegetable market in Padova.  Stalls are beautifully presented, often just selling a few different types of goods.  The fondi, carciofi, artichoke hearts were being prepared and displayed in a different way to those in Venice.  I asked permission of a trader to take photographs of them preparing the heart.  I took numerous photos of the different types.  I need to find out how to prepare the baby ones, the colour is amazing.  

The town was very busy as it was a Saturday but it felt wonderful to be surrounded by local s and not tourists.  There is a different feeling.  Because it was so busy it was difficult to get the photos but I am pleased with these.  I shall definitely return next month during the week when it is quieter.
