Porta Portese Review

If you know how to look, you will find many opportunities at good prices

One of the unusual places where I was. Fakes, the original will sell you everything saying it is antiques. Always bargain! The things they trade in are things found in the fuss or there is such a service when they come home to you and take all the trash for free. Usually this service is used by children who have remained flat or at home after their parents. And they do not have time to disassemble everything. Now back to the market. Many tourists hold bags or backpacks in front of you. The things and shoes you buy there are sure they are of poor quality. For this money you can buy in the store at discounts. The place is shorter to visit. At 14.00 start to close. And good luck finding something of value!

It has lost some of its charm. Too many fair stalls

Sunday market, huge. I took the walk and it never ended.

It is Sunday morning the market has already woken up, under license are ............. historic Roman market, where you could find everything. From the dress for mum to the shoes of the child .... From the antique to the classic ancient Rome stain. ...... And then the usual "cat and fox" with the game of three cards.
Today, unfortunately, he has lost some of its charm ..... contaminated with more commercial wares.
But still the stalls of various books, letters, magazines, antiques, antiques still resist, where you can browse and maybe find a little treasure.

A tour can be done, tourists can also avoid .... there is better to see in Rome

Apart from the radioactive shirts and camels really quite a leap fungus.

It is always the benchmark of the markets. Too bad that in large part has become a bit 'too "global", an invasion of junk all the same.

The part of the clothes has the same characteristics as any local market. Trinkets and antiques area with few sellers compared to the past (Poor quality on offer and somewhat exaggerated prices); all ready to pluck tourists

The Porta Portese market is finished because by now x 90%, occupied by stalls in Bangladesh and you can see x merchandise such and such at the local markets! A real pain and you lose more at risk of snatching x many Nomads thieves and muggers. To be avoided.

Grande Baglioni ... we wanted to see where the song was coming from ...

It is no longer the typically Roman market I had visited twenty years ago ...

Only on Sundays can you visit this great market. You will find everything. From used clothing to motorcycle helmets and more. As always you have to haggle unless the price is very comfortable and there is no discount. Always attentive and especially with your wallet. It is a world of people. You have to go early.

There are no antiques from a general flea market. Only second-brand clothes and accessories.

Historic market where I have been a part of for 20 years

Historical market of Rome, find everything. To visit

Ancient and suggestive door located near the Tiber, beautiful to look at

You spend Sunday between history, flea market and eating

A bit too confusing, but a traditional place for purchases of all kinds

Very crowded and mostly selling cheap, poorly-made products

Best flea market in the world, make sure you go by any item you like at different stands, lot's of poor quality, as well as high...always bargain...who knows you might get one...

Still alive in the minds of many ... including tourists. The charm of the most famous market in Ancient Rome is now a distant memory.

This place is a real discovery if you are willing to hunt through the 3 kilometre or so vendors. There are hidden treasures amid the continuum of the usual market stuff. I managed to locate 3 fantastic classic Italian made leather bags total cost less than 80. I found genuine Timberland shoes in my size, perfect condition 3.
I was warned by others to keep a tight grip on your money as there are people that will quickly steal. I had no issues as I am always cautious in this regard and never carry a wallet to these places.
This place is well worth the visit. We have been back 3 times and have picked up bargains each time.

Historical place to visit if you come to Rome. It places nothing exceptional in a busy area if you plan to visit a place where you can spend a lot of time. All in all beautiful. It is interesting to go there on Sunday to visit the famous Roman market of Porta Portese

I was very disappointed with this place. If you're expecting a bustling flea market that has the same goods as London's Portobello or the Paris Marche aux Puces don't bother to make the trek here on a Sunday morning.
The place appeals more to average Italians shopping for household goods and imported clothes. The only interesting stalls I found were two! One sold vintage magazines from the Il Boom years (50s Italy of the Dolce Vita vibe) and the other was a silver dealer midway along the 3km trek.
The stalls repeat themselves after a while and the place is really a slice of Italian suburbia. Not much touristic appeal!

Got all our souvenirs from here on a Sunday. Make sure to pass through if you're in the area

So much confusion but something interesting is always to be found

Historical Sunday market in the capital where you can find everything. By now a few schools of junkie, but there is no shortage of old bike shops, spare parts and camping, always open.
Traditional atmosphere.

It's like it's a trace of Madrid. I liked it a lot.

Very very popular place. Every Sunday sit here a big flow market. People get here everything they want. This market is also famous for cheap rate.

Great historical market in Rome, you can really find everything

Historical Sunday market. So many stalls and always so many people. Opportunity for a walk with some folklore.

The most famous quintessential market in Rome you can't miss LA DOMENICCA MATTINA

Excellent during the week to buy spare parts for motorcycles, bicycles or car stereo systems. Historic gathering of stalls on Sundays with the famous Portaportese market where you can really find everything: in the main street there are new objects, while in the side streets and more hidden there are used objects. OUR WALLETS and precious objects, the market is full of thieves ready to lighten up any pocket !!!

Large Sunday morning market where you can find everything. A little poor quality for a lot of dubiously manufactured goods but also counters with sample items. A glimpse of Rome absolutely to see

Historical Sunday market in Rome and in particular in Trastevere where you can find a bit of everything, new and used, clothing and clothing, furniture and work tools, etc. etc. To turn slowly between the stalls in search of good opportunities, being careful of any cheats !!!

Cheap market with cheap goods and equal to any other city market. Total disappointment

Amazing place to go if you want to find best clothes (mostly second hands) and great street food.... I simply love it!!

Large market every Sunday. You can easily spend 4 hours here.

Unfortunately I couldn't visit the market as it's only on sunday, but of course Porta Portese is always worth a visit to breathe a proper roman experience.

Let's say that a week is a no a ride in Porta Portese, we always run away .... let's say it is no longer a flea or antiques market and looks more and more like the classic neighborhood market, but something to take home I always find it. Bart's vintage glasses and interesting items from Franco's counter and going up to Piazza Ippolito Nievo we still find antiques, vintage and the most interesting benches. On the square, on the other hand, a mix of furniture and clothing comes down to the Atac store, for vinyl enthusiasts the great Pavel awaits with its goodies.

It was a beautiful Roman discovery. Porta Portese is a market (infinite labyrinth though) where everything is sold (antiques, new and second-hand clothes, DIY materials, fabrics, used books, unique pieces, ...). For fans of little curiosities, it would be a great way to get lost and have a fun Sunday.

It's a very long and beautiful market. Reasonable price. The market is a must!

Large market but nothing special, a real shame, its true history and typicality has been lost over the years

Could not find it at first and then it is just sunday fleamarket..

I expected something more than antiques and curious things. More a town market than anything else. Not worth it.

Huge market. You can find everything from Chinese products that you leave behind to Italian products made by hand.

I cannot come to Rome and not spend the Sunday morning at the market. A part of the heart
