About this tip
Pražská tržnice, the Holešovice market complex, is a city within a city of halls, food trucks and cafés. Hall 22 is the largest fruit and vegetable hall, and signs marked grower mean you buy directly from the farmer. Asian ingredients and Vietnamese food are easier to find here than in most of Prague. Some halls are under renovation, so hall use can change, and it is worth checking what is open before a special trip.
