Budapest
The Hungarian capital is a must-visit if you want to shop like it's 1899. Home to several charmingly ornamental historic markets, the grande dame is the palace-like Great Market Hall. On the Pest side of the river, opposite Fovam Square, it was first opened in 1897 and restored 100 years later. Now as much a tourist destination as a commercial centre, there may be more affordable places in the city to pick up twists of paprika and bottles of Tokaj wine, but few are as architecturally striking; above the market's soaring arches, part of the roof is festooned with colourful Zsolnay tiles. piaconline.hu
