One such cultural institution you can’t beat is the famous The Rocks Markets which sets up shop every Saturday and Sunday in one of the city’s most prime locations. Whether you’re after antique gems, hot food, gifts, or just a weekend stroll and browse, you’re bound to find it at this charming spot. Sort through racks of handcrafted artisanal goods, warm up with plenty of street food options and enjoy harbour views every weekend. The markets have also recently had an impressive facelift so there’s no better time to plan a visit than now.
