Art gallery
The Sainsbury Centre collection represents some of the most remarkable works of art assembled in the UK. Robert and Lisa Sainsbury donated their art collection to the University of East Anglia in 1973 but continued to donate artworks in their lifetime. Featuring pieces spanning 5,000 years of human creativity, the collection is perhaps best known for its remarkable works by artists such as Henry Moore, Francis Bacon and Alberto Giacometti. A must for art buffs. Plan your visit: https://sainsburycentre.ac.uk/visit-us/

Not just food, but the food stalls are the main draw for me. As one of the largest and oldest open-air markets in the country, its rich heritage and traditional appearance is sure to charm you.
Browse through the stalls and you will find a fantastic range of goods and services; whether you’re after clothes, children’s toys, jewellery, household goods, flowers, keys cut or shoes mended, the market has it all!
Stalls also sell a delicious range of quality local food including meat and fish, freshly baked bread, jam and chutneys plus a wide range of cheeses. For some tasty lunch on the go enjoy fish & chips, sandwiches, ice cream, sweets or a hog roast plus many more tasty offerings.
