Flea
Jostling with locals shopping for bargains at
Ecseri Piac
, one of Central Europe's
largest flea markets, is a fabulous way to spend a Saturday morning. Lose yourself
amid a cornucopia of gramophones, rocking horses, uniforms, violins and even suits of
armour. If you can't make it here, the smaller
Pecsa Bolhapiac
offers a less impressive
jumble of vintage knickknacks.

Design
A regular fair that takes place roughly once a month,
WAMP
(held in various locations
throughout the city) showcases the latest of Hungary's hippest designers. Clothes, bags
and jewellery are hung alongside artworks, prints and photos, and coffee and cakes
sweeten the shopping. It's a great place to buy one-of-a-kind souvenirs you may not
find in stores. More frequent
Gouba
offers a smaller selection of local arts and crafts.
