Cardiff's largest and oldest indoor market is housed in a Victorian building constructed in 1891, though the market's origins likely date back to the 18th century. It offers a wide range of items, from fresh local produce to various decorative objects and utensils.

Shopping
The majority of high street stores are located along pedestrian Queen Street. The city also has two main shopping centres located off Queen Street — The St David’s Centre and the Capitol Shopping Centre. The city has several arcades, but the ones worth visiting are Morgan, Castle, High Street, Royal and Wyndham, they are all located along St Mary Street and High Street. Most are two storeys high and look like perfectly preserved Victorian streets filled with coffee shops, boutiques and jewellery shops. Cardiff Central Market is located between St Mary Street and The Hayes. Take a walk round the upper balcony and look down upon the hustle and bustle of the market and admire its central clock tower.
