Street market can be defined as the gathering of buyers and sellers at regular intervals in places approved by the authorities. Market areas have been places that provide rich social and cultural interaction for the citizens. Due to its potential to improve social relations, it has been the subject of much research in terms of different disciplines. The acoustic environment of market spaces is one of these research areas. The user perception of the acoustic environments of the market areas can change with the cultural structure of the city. In this framework, the study investigates the user's perceptions of market areas in two cities with different cultural and social dynamics. Field studies were carried out in market areas in Berlin and Dresden. The market area in Berlin is a multicultural area where different languages are spoken and there are different products sold, mainly vegetables and fruit. The market area in Dresden is an area where mostly local producers offer organic and local products. In this study, acoustic measurements and surveys collecting in-situ ratings were made in both areas. The soundscape of both regions has been systematically investigated and compared with each other.
