Shops in train and bus stations and airports and sea-ports.
The larger shops and shopping centres are permitted to open on the following Sundays and holidays throughout Andalucia. This does not mean that all shops in the town or village will be open on a Sunday, it means that they are permitted to open. In practice the larger shopping centres and retail parks will definately be open, and some shops in the towns and cities will be open. Shops in the smaller towns and villages will be closed apart from the small convenience store and the petrol station.
