The Covered Market has been described as a treasure-house of good things, an Aladdin's Cave and even "The Jewel in Oxford's Crown". Opened in 1774, it is featured in most guides to the city and on dozens of websites. However, the individual businesses which it houses are even more interesting then the market as a whole with an impressive selection of high-quality merchandise on sale ranging from organic meat, poultry and game to exotic sea food, saddles to silk dresses, designer footwear to jewellery, flowers to fruit and vegetables from all over the world, cheese to chocolate. It is Oxford's own version of a souk or bazaar.
