How was it then and how is a medieval market now? Let&#8217;s find out.<\/p>\n<p>Medieval markets probably stood out for their bad smell since the food on offer could not be kept fresh; usually the animals were kept alive until they were sold, which contributed to an unhygienic environment. In addition to surviving the bad smell, we would hear traders trying to sell their products at full throttle. Beggars and musicians cannot be absent, demanding some attention in order to earn the livelihood of the day.<\/p>\n<p>In the current medieval markets or Fairs that take place all over Spain, there are many activities and shows with music, crafts and food. In Andalusia, medieval fairs usually have a Moorish atmosphere, because of the past that unites us with the culture that dominated these lands for so many centuries.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s take a look at the medieval Fairs that take place in Malaga:<\/p>\n<h2>Medieval Market in Benalmadena<\/h2>\n<p>The Benalmadena Medieval Market takes place during a weekend in May.
