About this audio guide
This guide to Amzei Market in Bucharest starts on a spring day in two thousand ten, with a woman selling tomatoes and strawberries from the back of a van beside the square. It reaches back to a market founded in eighteen forty-one and its nineteenth-century halls, then to the rebuild that sent hundreds of vendors elsewhere. Along the way you'll meet a district spokesman with an unusual view of fines. Best heard standing on the square, facing the modern market building.
