When the city of Ottawa was designed, the streets where the Byward Market takes place were built wider to accomadate a public market. As a result, ByWard Market is now one of the largest public outdoor markets in Canada. From fruit to books and over 260 unique booths, the Byward Market definitely has something for everyone. The ByWard Market is also a neighbourhood within Ottawa that includes everything from courtyards to barbershops.
