🇷🇺 St. Petersburg "Second Largest" Flea Market in Europe 🎉🥳

Some claim it to be the second largest in Europe, but I think that's a bit of an exaggeration. Time: Saturdays and Sundays! 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM ‼️Please note that from 3:00 PM, vendors start to pack up. Address: Fermskoe Shosse 41K1, a 10-minute walk from the metro station. I went on a Saturday (the 16th), having heard there were many selling CCDs and wanted to find some. When I got there, I found only two. 🥹 Beware ⚡️ of the shop in Figure 2 selling CCDs, run by an elderly man and woman. The shop is filled with postcards and also sells jewelry. As soon as you enter the market, you'll see this shop. They wanted 20 Rubles for a postcard, and when I picked four, they asked for 100 Rubles. Rest assured, I didn't buy any! A few steps further in, see Figure 3, where the shop is run by two very kind grandmothers. The cheapest medals are 100 Rubles for three, and 20 Rubles for a postcard. Soviet-era postcards are 100 Rubles each, and the shop also has other interesting and beautiful items. The market boasts a wide variety of goods, including many selling vintage clothing, mink, bags, postcards (including Soviet-era ones 🎑), medals, stamp albums (you can also buy individual stamps), porcelain, antiques (be sure to discern), and vinyl records... I also met an old lady selling bracelets. I could only introduce myself, and she complimented my Russian, which made me feel embarrassed. There are vendors selling tea and coffee in the market, which can warm your hands on a cold day. If you're worried about safety, consider going with a group! I had heard that many stalls couldn't transfer or swipe cards, so I brought cash. I found that many shops and stalls can indeed process card payments. Still, it's advised to bring some cash. #StudyAbroad #Travel #WeekendPlans
