+
Compares awesome to U.S. spots like the Rose Bowl Flea Market or county fairs, but with way more live animals and that raw Eastern European energy
Cons
–
Dabas is barely known to foreign tourists, so it's off the beaten path and feels like a real adventure (or trek)
–
The animal section can get chaotic and smelly with livestock, not ideal if your family's picky about hygiene
–
Not internationally famous like big European markets (e.g., UK's Portobello or France's flea markets), so less hype and info online
