Saint John City Market is one of Canada's oldest continuously operating farmers' markets, dating back to 1876. The market's distinctive arched ceiling and brick walls create a warm, historic atmosphere. Vendors sell fresh seafood, local meats, baked goods, maple syrup, and handmade crafts. The market is also known for its 'upside-down' ship sculpture hanging from the ceiling, a nod to the city's maritime heritage. Visitors can sample classic Maritime dishes like lobster rolls and dulse.
