There is a saying that if a person goes abroad, the best way to get to know the country is to go to a local market. In a market we can get to know the local people, food and gastronomy. The Hungarian capital has many great markets. In these places, we can support the local economy and small farmers, and we can go to a restaurant or get the food we need at a reasonable price.
