Kazan Central Market

The culture of street markets is very developed in Kazan, although it is already becoming replaced by European supermarkets. Kazan Central Market is the most accessible and gives you a good idea of the atmosphere of the real Tatar bazar. Here you can find everyting for very cheap prices - fruit, vegetables, dairy products and meat , as well as some delicious, locally made treats. A walk around the stalls seeing what’s on the offer is an experience in itself. It’s also a good chance to discover the Russia of the 90s, as almost nothing changed in the market since then. Open 8.00 - 17.00 except Mondays.
