Nightcliff Markets

Another favourite pastime for the locals is a visit to the regular weekly Nightcliff markets. We're staying in that suburb and went straight there after feeding the fish.



The markets attracted visitors of many different nationalities including neighbouring countries to the north of Darwin, East Asia, Europe (I heard French and German), and the US. And the stalls saw people flogging off personal items of housewares, tools and clothing; arts and crafts; and new goods from around the world. There were also lots of food stalls and it was possible to sample the tastes of many different nationalities. Much of the stuff had an exotic touch, feel, or aroma, and Max scored an Andean flute for his troubles.
