It was just a shopping complex with mainly shops selling clothings and other mainly uninteresting goods. It is now renovated and upgraded to quite a chic eating place where some really nice and impressive foods are served at the ground floor, the first floor remains mainly shops and with a spacious 'room' to serve for events, such as private party, exhibition etc.
The most interesting aspect of this floor is actually the terrace which can oversee the open air market at a higher level, which makes it perfect spot to photograph the market.
Whereas, at the basement, there is the antique ice house, the ghiacciaie where once ice was kept and distributed.
The Mercato Centrale opens still past midnight everyday, being at the not really safest spot of the town, it really needs to be a lot more convincing to get visitors coming after the evening, plus the foods although are of better quality than most eating places in town, but so are the prices higher....
