62 bul. Kniaz Aleksandar DondukovThe women's market is a typical place for an outdoor market. It has been updated. From there you can buy fresh fruits and vegetables. There are spice shops from Asia and Bulgaria. We recommend that you get savory - dipped or colorful salt, both of which are used in Bulgarian cuisine. Colorful salt is a very nice spice for white cheese and a toast with butter. There you will also find butcher shops - with Bulgarian and Turkish delicacies. Gift shops - from Bulgarian rose oil to handmade household items.
