Riccarton Market

Fodor's Review:

On Sunday from 8 to 2, the parking lot of the Riccarton Racecourse fills with hundreds of stalls for the Riccarton Market. Soak up the atmosphere and rummage through everything from secondhand books lying on rolls of carpet to carpentry tools to sheepskin slippers.
