A bad copy of Barcelona

2.00We were visiting the market that I can call the bad copy of the markets of Barcelona "La Boqueria" the impact on entry deceives you can seem a pleasant visit of a couple of hours you start walking then you realize that the counters are virtually all the same staff more often than not rude not to mention the food hygiene part virtually unknown prices medium high example an average glass of beer € 8.25 food rating 4 a little because if you think how you are served then especially the quality is not worth the cost of the plate. To forget....

5.00Budapest is the most beautiful city in Europe, it would take an encyclopedia to describe its beauties. Visit it live and you will realize its beauty.

5.00The market is really beautiful, you can find everything and it is located on two floors, it is large and you feel comfortable walking around it. We ate in the small restaurant which is located upstairs. Prices like in Italy.
