More than two months after its abrupt closure, this pillar of local life is accessible again, just before the end of year holidays. It is by exemption and under surveillance that shopping is once again done in Ventimiglia.
After the fire which caused its closure, the covered market is back. It was able to reopen very early this Monday, it was announced on November 14.
Renowned and appreciated by the Maralpins, it had closed its doors since the disaster in September. On October 15, some stands were just able to reopen on the street, between via Aprosio and Repubblica.
“The work on the first security phase having been completed, the covered market is finally reopening” sthe mayor is congratulated, quoted by Sanremo News. “In this first phase, an active fire surveillance service has been activated and the local police command will monitor compliance with the rules.”
The institution will therefore be open Monday to Thursday from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m., Friday and Saturday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Beyond the city's reputation for its shops and gastronomy, it attracts the curious, even far from the remarkable Italian city. On the other side of the Alps, residents of Nice, Menton and the entire Riviera take the time to travel to the town in the province of Imperia in Liguria to stroll around the numerous stalls.
