2 Best Places to Shop in Loulé, The Algarve

Believed to be one of the oldest in the Algarve, if not the country, Loulé Municipal Market is a hive of smells, colors, and sounds. The century-old Moorish-style indoor area has a number of stalls that sell ready-to-eat foods, so you can sample local delicacies as you browse. The best time to come is Saturday morning, when the surrounding outdoor farmers' market bursts into life.

Works by internationally renowned artists are displayed—and sold—at the Art Catto gallery.
