Smaller Bazar, but better prices than at the Grand Bazar.
Smaller Bazar, but better prices than at the Grand Bazar. Same rules apply, bargaining is the key. More diversified goods, some gold, lots of silver and lots of fake goods, but the good ones are also expensive, ranging from few hundreds to 1.000,00 €. Great furs, prices from 500€ and more.

Men here are very polite and they know service on a top level. First time I was here I was heartbroken and the Turkish men made me forget about my ex asap. You feel that the men takes care of you mentally and physically. I couldn’t carry heavy bags bc of my operation and was on heavy pills. They was really really caring! I found all I wanted and all I needed instantly. They’re not selfish at all, like many people now a days!

Crowded but accessible and so much fun!
Crowded but accessible and so much fun! Don’t let the crowds put you off… the Turks are very friendly and easy going. So go with the flow and look for Turkish Delight made with honey in place of sugar ( travel tip).

Another place where you wonder at the quantity of the products. The variety in any one actual spice is way beyond my experience. Lucky if I have the spice in the pantry let alone 6 types for different purposes.

Great atmosphere & architecture - go here rather than the Grand Bazaar which is by contrast tatty. Just seeing all the (similar) stalls with turkish delights, fruit, nuts and spices piled high is a real treat!
