A huge selection of products, the main thing is not to get lost))) We barely found a liquor store. They helped, brought me, I really wanted to bring Samarkand wine. We bought the famous halva Sundae, I really liked it. They traded everywhere, but the prices were not dropped by much((
The market is for those who can bargain. Everyone is trying to deceive you. It is better to go with the locals who speak their languages. The atmosphere is positive.
It's very dirty and not because it's oriental exotic, but because I don't clean it. The stink. Products (greens, vegetables, cottage cheese!! ) they sell from the floor. Everyone is friendly and it brightens up. The building was not repaired for 100 le. Toilets are paid.
A huge selection of nuts, halva, spices,tea,souvenirs and dishes. Everyone gives you a taste, they pour tea, you feel at home.The favorite answer of all sellers to the question of how much it costs, let's go, brother, I'll give you cheaper😄😄😄
A bazaar for tourists. With inflated prices. Well, that's understandable. Be sure to bargain, the price will be kindly reduced, do not buy without bargaining. The bazaar is good because you can buy everything here in one place. Souvenirs, fruits, vegetables, dishes, Uzbek robes and dresses, and so on.
If you haven't visited Siab Bazaar, then you haven't seen Samarkand!) You can try everything and be sure to bargain! Delicious Samarkand kaya Halva, spices, dried fruits, souvenirs!) All this is waiting for you!
An amazing place, compared to the collective farm market of Bukhara, it is very clean here)) there is a terrible smell in the markets in Russia, but here... There was a smell of fresh herbs, strawberries, pilaf and freshly cooked samsa, and these incongruous smells oozed into an interesting aroma, entangling the oriental flavor of this place, the merchants were hospitable and offered to try literally everything) prices turned out to be higher than store prices
A wonderful bazaar that you are looking for, everything will be found, the bazaar in Samarkand is better, especially sellers do not fight for customers at all...
Great place! But you need to go there on your own, without guides! There are more chances to bargain efficiently and enjoy shopping for a variety of goods!
A wonderful place! A real oriental exotic. Everything is delicious and of high quality, mountains of fruits, sweets for every taste, tortillas, pilaf, dishes and all sorts of stuff
Abundance and variety, bright colors and unforgettable impressions! All this is the oriental bazaar!
It's very noisy, there are a lot of beggars, the goods are for the amateur. Actually, the stores have the same thing and even cheaper. But to see the "spirit of the oriental bazaar" itself = quite. You can buy vegetables and fruits, there are no such things in stores.
The market is not bad, but the sellers do not comply with sanitary rules at all!And the buyers, too, touch the bread with their bare hands (if they would buy the same bread...but nooo they have to touch everything!)!Sellers react calmly to this...It is necessary to demand that they do not touch the bread with their hands!With other products, the same thing, chakka is given to lick, from there you can also put it...
A convenient colorful bazaar, sellers of dried fruits are super good fellows, everything is at the bazaar, BUT the sellers of cakes are rude communication, the bazaar 🔥🔥🔥🔥
At the entrance to the main gate, you can find a money changer who will exchange dollars and rubles for som. So the market is big, you can find anything. I advise you to buy pomegranate juice. On 09/29/2023 it costs 20,000 SOM. Some sell for 25,000 som. But you can also ask for 20k.
Bargain everywhere, prices are well discounted.
A picturesque place. You need to bargain everywhere. Right everywhere.

A cozy bazaar.
Small.
The prices are quite reasonable.
Among the disadvantages: a large number of beggars, a disgusting restroom at the end of the bazaar.
The sellers are friendly, not particularly annoying.
A great bazaar, I was deceived there by overcharging 10 times! It was the first day in the city)) So you understand - reduce prices every 5 times. Be sure to buy bread - a local landmark and very tasty.
To be in Samarkand and not visit the Siab Bazaar is unforgivable!
Remember, it is important to bargain, as they see a tourist multiplied by 2 or 3. Do not buy right away, be sure to evaluate all the food numeroclature.
There are a lot of beggars walking around, so keep an eye on things.
I saw a very interesting product for the first time at the Siab bazaar in Samarkand: wolf teeth. These are amulets in the form of wolf teeth. For luck. For money. According to the sellers themselves, I cannot answer For the authenticity of the goods!
We arrived at the closing, but we managed to buy souvenirs, if you bargain, you can take it twice as cheap, there are all clothes, groceries, dishes, etc.
