This market it is fabulous. I've been in plenty of markets all around the world, but this one really caught me. It's big, considering the small size of the city hosting it. And it's full of variety. People will sell indoors and outdoors, in individual and common areas. Some products are sold in a specific building. I entered a door and found myself in a cheese pavilion with two dozens of cheese sellers.
To spice things up you have a mosaic of people: Moldavian non educated people, Moldavian educated people, gipsies, foreigners, tourists (or perhaps that was only me), travelers (the main bus station is next to the market).
