This is the second oldest public space in Cape Town, after the Grand Parade. Yo can grab a bite, get a coffee and hit the market to explore the locally made souvenirs. The square is basically a bustling market of buskers, jewellery, clothing, and nick-nacks. This is one of the best places in Cape Town to buy souvenirs and gifts, while supporting the local traders. There are canvas artworks on sale, as well as leather goods like sandals and backpacks, hand-crafted jewellery, ornaments, and more. A note: Yes, bargaining is part of the game but please remember that the vendors need to be able to make a living from their sales, so be fair and don't haggle just to "win".
