kornspitz 00:44 UTC 18 Jun 2009 | Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows about nice markets in Apia (where and when)? Cheers! |
wksamoa 09:50 UTC 18 Jun 2009 | There are 3 markets in Apia. The "New Market" in Fugalei, where food is sold and some souvenirs as well. Open 24/7 throughout the year but many stalls are closed at night. The "Flea Market" in Savalalo, where souvenirs and clothes are sold, open Monday to Friday 9.00 am to 4.30 pm, Saturday to 12.00 pm. The "Fish Market", at the Savalalo Waterfront, open every day - but usually all sold out after 10.00 am. All worth a visit. Oh, and bargaining is not welcomed. You might get a discount but it is not common at all to ask for it. | 1
