Practical visitor information
Browse individual vendors for the styles and materials you want, and ask about the maker and origin of a particular item. Stock and payment arrangements vary by stall. The tourism listing does not establish a current daily opening schedule, so check locally before making a special trip. Its published tourism-office contact should not be treated as a direct telephone line to every vendor.
