Unlike the traditional wet markets, Marché Provencal is more like a morning market in China. People there set up some temporary stalls in the central square and arrange the freshest "fruits" before early morning. There are lots of flowers, fruits, vegetables and spices from all over the world. Fat foie gras, fresh honey, fresh lavender, wine and cheese, as well as fruit preserves and fragrant spices...all kinds of aroma are intertwined into a natural fresh. When you are wandering there, not only your vision, smell and taste will be satisfied, but also you can enjoy a spirit entertainment of French food culture.

It is a food market regarded as "the Sistine Chapel of the food world". When it opened, the queen of the Netherlands came to cut the ribbon. After a few days, it attracted over one million people came from far away to visit it. The number of visitors increased to 8 million within one year. It's the first and only wet market with more than 800 articles worldwide and nearly 20,000 images published on social media. The reason why it was selected into the top 10 global markets is not only because it’s the first indoor vegetable market in Rotterdam, but also because on its arched inner wall, there is a huge surreal fresco of vegetables and fruits jointly completed by artists ArnoCoenen and IrisRoskam, which is called "Cornucopia". The painting covers an area of 11,000 square meters and is the largest artwork in the Netherlands today. It is colorful and lifelike like a real image. At the beginning of the evening, floodlights light up the ceiling painting, and the gorgeous colors of large areas directly amaze the whole block!
