The market of the Noailles quarter, often called the belly of Marseille, is a vibrant, multicultural street market just off the Canebiere. Its stalls overflow with fruit, vegetables, herbs, spices, olives and North African and Mediterranean specialities, and the surrounding streets are full of exotic grocers, bakeries and spice shops. Loud, colourful and full of life, it reflects the diverse communities that make up the city and is a wonderful, authentic place to shop for fresh produce and to experience the true, everyday flavour of Marseille.
