The weekend is here and there is nothing better to do than spend a few hours at one of these Saturday markets

2019 update: And from the market named after a dog to a slow market in Langa, there’s lots to see at these City of Cape Town markets.  We’ve also curated outstanding and out of town markets worth travelling for.
