A large fire broke out last night in the city’s old market, filling the underground cavern with smoke and flames.
Firefighters arrived quickly to battle the blaze, which started under a glass canopy near the main archway.
The cause of the fire is still unknown, but officials think a short circuit could be the trigger.
People working in the market say they saw thick smoke rising from the cavern just after midnight.
Many workers rushed outside, worried about the precious goods stored there.
Firefighters used special equipment, including ultrasound devices, to search for anyone trapped in the market’s deep tunnels.
No serious injuries were reported, but some workers were taken to hospital for a urine test and a thyroid test to check for smoke exposure and stress.
The city market is a popular place for shopping and tourism.
This fire has made many locals worried about safety, especially because the canopy and the beautiful stone archway are important historic features.
City officials say repairs will begin soon, and they are thankful everyone is safe.
