Day Four. Obor market

 On a bitterly cold morning we hopped on a local Tram and made our way over to Romania's largest market (Obor Market.) The old trams are not the most comfortable and there was a pretty nasty smell in our carriage. 


The market itself is a huge place selling every possible item, although meat, fruit and veg seemed to be the most popular items. 



The real Christmas tree section were especially doing a  brisk trade and we noticed that the price of trees increased the closer it came to the big day.


As we left the market we encountered a number of Romany woman trying to sell us packets of cigarettes.
