El Rastro
El Rastro de Madrid or simply el Rastro is the most popular open air flea market in Madrid (Spain). It is held every Sunday and public holiday during the year and is located along ''Plaza de Cascorro'' and ''Ribera de Curtidores'', between ''Calle Embajadores'' and the ''Ronda de Toledo'' (just south of ''La Latina'' metro station).
A great variety of products (new and used) can be found at el Rastro. A number of antique shops in the local area are also open on Sunday.
==Etymology==
''El Rastro'' means "the trail". The market probably owes its name to the tanneries that were once located in ''Ribera de Curtidores'' (''Ribera de Curtidores'' means 'riverside of tanners'). Close by, on the banks of the Manzanares River, was an abattoir. Transporting the slaughtered cattle from the abattoir to the tannery left a trail (''rastro'') of blood along the street.〔(Madrid: El Rastro ) 〕 An alternative etymology suggests el Rastro once meant "outside", referring to the fact el Rastro was once outside the jurisdiction of the mayor's court.〔(El Origien del Rastro ) 〕
