Marché de Pointe-à-Pitre is more than a daily shopping stop: the Guadeloupe tourism authority presents the Spice Market as an open-air hall in the historic heart of the city and a listed historic monument. From Monday to Saturday, its stalls concentrate spices, tropical fruit, artisan punches, traditional remedies and handicrafts. The event earns its place in a culture-first database because the market is a living introduction to Creole foodways, sensory heritage and everyday urban life in Pointe-à-Pitre.
