MARKETS AROUND THE WORLD



Many towns and cities have a market at weekends, where you can buy food and other items.

BOROUGH MARKET, in Central London, is one of the oldest and largest food markets in London. It sells a wide variety of food from the UK  and around the world.

UNION SQUARE GREENMARKET IN NEW YORK




FLOWER'S MARKET IN AMSTERDAM






DAMNOEN SADUAK IN BANGKOK. FLOATING MARKET

Food is an important part of a country's culture. The food on offer in markets, shops and restaurants as well as the meals people cook at home tell us about the country's climate, history, traditions, beliefs and influences.


Do you enjoy eating food from other countries?
 What does the food tell us abouth those countries?
Which country do you think has the best food? Why?
