The people of Perpignan say you can buy just about anything at their city’s liveliest open air market. Stalls sell brightly coloured Catalan textiles and pottery and the work of local artists and artisans. Villagers come in from the country bringing their own produce – what’s on offer changes seasonally, but in autumn
you can expect an even greater choice of home-made sweet and savoury preserves, cheeses, honey scented by Pyrenean herbs, and wines and liqueurs. There are plenty of stalls too where you can rummage for real antiques, unusual curios and bric-a-brac of all kinds
