Jewellery, spare parts and Stalin
At the Dry Bridge flea market you can buy almost everything. There are knives next to the books, silver jewellery next to old household appliances. Porcelain cups and plates stand next to old typewriters and cameras. From the golden, 30 cm tall statue of Josef Stalin to the spare part for a mobile phone from the nineties, you can find almost anything that is useful or useless at the flea market.
Craftsmanship from Georgia and beautiful jewellery can be found at the Dry Bridge market as well as all kinds of scrap metal. A highlight for tourists is the traders who spread a potpourri of relics of the Soviet Union on their clothes. Military badges, awards of the Communist Party and all kinds of pins, flags and pictures can be admired.
Open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The flea market at the Dry Bridge is not to be overlooked: The numerous traders lay out their goods on large cloths on the floor. Originally, all traders were locals who simply sold all sorts of things that they could no longer use at home to generate a small additional income. Today it is the main occupation for many traders.
If the weather is right, the flea market is open every day from 10:00 to 17:00 o'clock. At the weekend the selection is the largest. But then most visitors are there.
