Sublime Sunday - Friday Market
Welcome to #SublimeSunday, a tag presenting you with the unique opportunity to post something a bit different, wacky, crazy or just whatever takes your fancy, initiated by @c0ff33a ☕️
There are two big market days in Benalmadena. One on Wednesday at the car park beside the Parque La Paloma (Park of the Doves), and one on Friday at the Tivoli World car park in the town center, behind the train station. The one on Wednesday is a second hand good market. The one on Friday has everything from fruit and vegetables, candies, potteries, handbags, shoes, clothing, hats, potted plants.... Both are very popular with both locals and tourists as one can find good bargains here.
Both markets open from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm. It seems a lot of work for a five hour business period, especially the one on Friday, as they have to set up the stalls. The Wednesday market, maybe because they are all second hand goods, some of the merchants just lay their merchandise on the floor.
This is the view from above, on the slope of the market place. As you can see, it is quite a big place - and this is not the entire place as part of the view was blocked by trees.

What an awesome and busy market, I love the hats I would like to try a few of those!
So much to see and buy at this one, I guess the stall with plastic tubs filled with multi colour items is a sweet (candy) stall?
A fun day out, did you return home laden with many bags?

Yes, It is a very popular market, both with the locals and tourists. I didn't buy anything at all. I am not a 'buyer' and mainly because language is a problem. They are all local sellers, and most do not speak English, and I don't speak any Spanish. I find it too much trouble to make myself understood.
Yes, those multi-coloured items in plastic tubs are candies.

Thank you @esteemapp for your support.
any cheap and good "hand crafted" soap? Are the candles or any aroma oils worth the money ?
Didn't see any. I think it will be too hot for them out here.
Howdy sir Vincent! I like that place, it looks like the place to go for bargains. Hey you should get a cowboy hat, you'd look good in one. Well actually they improve anyone's looks. Makes you smarter too!
Howdy Jonboy! I hate to say this, but for once, you might be right. Cowboy hats do improve one's looks - which is why I don't need one. lol
lol! good one sir Vincent! You can't improve on perfection can you? lol.
