The market at Porta Palazzo, the biggest open air market in Europe, is obviously full of vendors and they offer beside foods mainly clothings, bags and accessories.
Most of the vendors are actually not italian, those who sell clothings, bags and accessories are mainly the chinese and africans.
While making the photo, one of the African vendor wanted to know if I did ask their permission to photograph them. I told him that I am not doing close up of any person, so it is not necessary to ask any permission since the market is a public place.

In Italy, the COVID-19 green certificate facilitates attendance at certain public events (such as trade fairs, concerts, sports competitions, parties following religious or civil ceremonies) and access to health care facilities for the elderly (RSA). It is also mandatory when moving into and out of areas that may be classified as "red" or "orange" zones in the absence of valid reasons for work, health or proven urgency.
The rule, announced some weeks ago, applies to domestic flights, train travel between regions and sea travel. Some ferries are exempt, such as those serving many tiny islands which have no other connections to the mainland, and those used by commuters between Sicily and the southern tip of the mainland in Calabria.
Several protests against the obligation of Green Pass have been held in some major cities and in Torino, the protest has been going on every Saturday in the center of the city.
