Anjuna's Wednesday flea market is the hub of Goa's alternative scene, and the place to indulge in s spot of souvenir shopping. A few years aback, the weekly event was the exclusive preserve of backpackers and the area's semi-permanent population, who gathered here to smoke chillums, and to buy and sell clothes and jewelry. These days, however, everything is more organized and mainstream. Pitches are rented out by the meter, drugs are banned and the approach roads to the village are choked solid all day with buses and cars ferrying tourists from down the coast. The flea market is a great place just to sit and watch the world go by. Mingling with the suntanned masses are bands of strolling musicians, itinerant beggars, performing monkey acts and snake charmers, as well as the inevitable hippy jugglers, clad in regulation waistcoats and billowing pajama trousers.
