A great find! I love to find antique/vintage markets to look through on my travels and this is…read moredefinitely a good one. Rome is not short on antique shops or vintage shops but budget ones are rare. This is the American equivalent of an antique mall where several dealers/pickers have their section or glass cabinet full of things up for sale. While this place has things in all price ranges, the selection is big and I could easily find some bargains. I ended up finding an item I liked in one of the locked glass cabinets and I easily spotted a staff member who quickly and in a friendly manner showed it to me, and later, had an English speaking person tell me where to pay and pick it up when I was done looking. The good size clothing section is particularly priced well, I saw nice leather jackets for 25 euro and a nice leather trimmed tote for 15. They of course have the high end name brand stuff section for more. There's a large furniture section which included several mid century Italian design items that would be much much more in the states, for example a 50s Italian love seat with all the right curves and metal peg legs was only 200 euro when I could see it being thousands in the US. The neighborhood is a bit off the way if you're staying in the Vatican/Centro area but near the Termini station, tho surely worth the treck!

One of the best used markets in Rome. Good finds on unusual pieces although some things are a bit…read morepricey. Furniture, clothing, household accessories, kitchen, dvd's, books and music. Worth visiting since it is one of the largest and most selective in the city. It even has a stylish bar inside also with outdoor seating and off street parking.

Yes, Porta Portese has more of a flea market vibes but it is so huge that you are bound to find something neat if you're patient enough. I browsed through some vintage stands and didn't find anything to bring back... but was able to find a nice pair of new baggy jeans on the other side of the market toward the residential area. On our way back we were able to find some local artwork in post card size to bring back for friends and family. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area and into treasure hunting. Highly recommend to come check them out on the weekends if you're in Rome.

Visited on a Saturday and found a great deal on a luggage that I needed for gifts to take back…read morehome. I bought a brand new 27" luggage with wheels; this luggage was selling for $160 in the heart of Rome. The seller tried to sell it to me for $60 then I countered with $35 and he said $40, which I accepted. There are a lot of retro items that I would've loved to buy, but it would've been too heavy to bring back to the U.S. We ended up buying a Beatles vinyl record, fans (4 for $1), and other small items for gifts. This place has everything and it felt like we walked for miles one way only! Don't be afraid to bargain, they'll work with you!

I found some gorgeous Italian made espresso spoons for about 3 Euros each. There are all sorts of espresso cups, coffee accessories, kitchen gadgets, soaps, linens and more. Lots of pretty Italian things. Definitely worth a look if you are a kitchen person. The employees were very friendly as well.
