Wonders Municipal Market
Wonders Municipal Market
The Market of Wonders never ends. Everything fits in this large market, tending to infinity.
The incessant movement of its quadrangular fishmongers -serving on all four sides- and the bustle of greengrocers where hectares of orchards fit alternate with small cafeterias and tiny shops.
...Inside there is room for a world, and in the contours of that world the sawtooth-shaped roof stands out -a light from above sneaks in through the huge windows- and the exposed brick façade with a cantilevered concrete canopy.
The market has two car parks with capacity for more than 350 vehicles, access from four points (Bravo Murillo, Hernani, Palencia and Plaza Condesa de Gavia), elevators, service ramps, ATM, heating and air conditioning. In a place as huge as the Mercado de Maravillas, there is also room for eco-sustainable projects: part of the market's electricity comes from solar panel accumulators located on its roof.
