It's beautiful, unusual, and worth a look. But just to see, the main building itself is very small, you can walk around slowly in 10-15 minutes. Everywhere they invite you to try something. The assortment is like everywhere else, the prices are also about the same as everywhere else. Then the market goes outside and there is nothing special there. Ordinary shops with all sorts of junk, clothes and household items. All the same things that are sold all over the city
A picturesque place! Sellers are not as intrusive as in Egypt. You rent out beautiful and bright things like that... You will definitely be treated to sweets, tea will be brewed on trial or a drink will be diluted. Be prepared to be made fun of... Offer to smell a spice or a drink, and the smell is sharp as an asterisk, it takes your breath away. I advise you to visit.
Atmospheric, beautiful, rich. It is worth going to take a look, it is possible that it is worth buying sweets and spices. There are always a lot of people. It is worth walking not only inside but also around the bazaar on the street.
Tea can be bought profitably. Sweets are 2 times more expensive than in regular stores around the city. So either bargain hard, or buy in other places, you will definitely find it cheaper. Textiles are much cheaper on the streets outside the market. They are trying to cheat and sell everything more expensive, be careful! But you can go into all the shops and try something, tasty and profitable)
An ordinary bazaar. A lot of oriental sweets are very tasty, spices of various teas. It is very similar to the gardener's market. The same faces, the same goods, the same speech. The prices, however, are very high. For general development, we need to look at it.
A good place to immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the Oriental base. In terms of shopping, everything is not so clear, you can buy souvenirs, gifts and other places in the city
At the entrance (see photo) there is a tea room (1 armud for 15 lira), there is almost everything in the market, in the main building - spices, teas, washcloths, and baklava of course :) they speak different languages (perhaps yours too ;), there are clothes, carpets, dishes and so on outside the main building. In general, look for it and you will find it ;) and of course, do not forget to bargain, sometimes it works.
It's a great place! The atmosphere is incredible!!! Beautiful sellers are trying to lure you to them with their good-natured smile, treat you and persuade you to buy something))
The prices are too high. I recommend you to visit anyway! At least just to look at it)
I was surprised only that the Turks smoke right at the counters.
There are a lot of shops with a wide variety of sweets and fruits. In general, bargain. Otherwise, your purchases will be three times more expensive. Do not hesitate to leave, they will throw more. Tea, coffee and sweets are offered in every shop. Everything will be packed on the plane, everything is fresh. The building is located with the letter G.
Ienterseny market. A huge assortment of teas, dried fruits, fruits, sweets. Prices are certainly more expensive than in non-tourist areas, but here is the very atmosphere of Istanbul.
An atmospheric place. You can buy souvenirs cheaper than in street shops. Be sure to bargain without expressing an explicit intention to purchase the product. The price announced to tourists can be reduced by half.
Египетский базар мне нравится больше, чем Гранд базар, посещаем его в обязательном порядке, когда бываем в Стамбуле. Во-первых, там закупаемся самым вкусным турецким кофе Mehmet Efendi, во-вторых покупаем специи, смесь перцев, различные миксы для всех видов блюд, их упаковывают в вакуумную упаковку, минимально продается от 100 гр., в третьих - чаи, различные ароматные фруктовые, цветочные, особо хочется отметить эвкалиптовый чай, которых разное множество, но самый офигенный, это который когда дают попробовать, от одного запаха пробивает на слезу, такой ядреный. Как то раз запершило в горле и мы как раз гуляли по базару, пробовали различные чаи, и нам дали попробовать этот эвкалиптовый чай, после этого чая все как рукой сняло, с тех пор его покупка - обязательный пункт, и зимой дома во время болезни очень облегчает симптомы простуды. В- четвертых, именно на Египетском базаре находится много ювелирных магазинчиков, где местные закупаются золотом, и именно тут в разные годы покупала золотые серьги и браслеты себе и дочери, качество не проверяла, но внешне красивые, цвет не меняют, уши не болят, замки крепкие, дочка носит и серьги, и браслет не снимая, как и я. Это основное, а так на улице продуктовый базар, можно купить и всевозможные сыры, и колбасы, и много видов оливок, и аналог чурчхелы - джевизли суджук- очень вкусный!, и всевозможные орехи, пахлава, сладости, в общем все-все-все. Из минусов - очень много народу, особенно в продуктовой части. Торговаться можно, в ювелирных не особо торгуются, но могут сделать скидку, цена идет за грамм золота в долларах. Рядом находится птичий рынок, и продаются различные семена и рассада.
An interesting place. It smells of spices and cigarettes, stuffy. They wash the tiles in the morning, it's clean enough. The prices are of course tourist. It's worth a walk for the sake of historical interest
There is a huge market, a variety of goods, prices vary, it is necessary to bargain. But the clothes and shoes are not of high quality. And the sweets/ this is generally a separate story. In one place, a kilogram of sweets is 150 lire, a more crowded place is 450 lire, too. This is the east.
It's worth going in and just walking, but no more. I do not recommend buying. The Turks are very good traders. They sell low-quality items and products at high prices. The expensive green tea in the form of a ball turned out to be not jasmine tea at all, as it was stated, and even from leaves tied with a rope. Handmade tableware, peels off even before it is used. Handmade soap turns into a liquid mass. A complete deception!
A good place to part with finances.But as they say Istanbul is a city of contrasts :).There is everything for every taste and age.But everything is more expensive than it was 3-4 years ago.But in general, I advise you to visit.Impressions are guaranteed.
All sellers are friendly and helpful)) they make discounts 😍 very nice 😻 there are a lot of people 😅 there is also a lot of choice there is everything everything
An unreal atmosphere, a wide variety of goods. The diverse flavor of Turkey in one place! A large selection of luxury copies of famous brands of clothing and shoes.
Authentic! It is absolutely necessary to visit here. It is a very lively area, and not only the Egyptian markets are here, but also the Eminenu pier on a yacht in any direction
An unrealistically beautiful place, a must-visit. You can buy various sweets, souvenirs, and even if you don't want to buy anything, then enjoy the decor of the interior 10/10
It's a very attractive place. It smells of spices and sweets. I recommend you to visit. But it is worth remembering that buying goods here you overpay compared to the city and bargaining is difficult here.
A stunningly authentic place. I didn't see anyone buying a lot there, because prices are three times lower right outside the walls of this market, but this is a real beautiful oriental fairy tale! Must-visit)))
The bazaar is a bazaar, huge squares, we went through to Suleymaniye, we didn't like that the merchants were clinging. There are a lot of people and everything in this bazaar is very unreasonably expensive, I do not recommend making a purchase there. The bazaar is exclusively aimed at tourists.
The place is historical, it is recommended to visit. Oriental flavor, it is possible and necessary!!! to bargain. But, I take off the star for the prices. This is no longer a market, but a central shopping center...
An interesting and colorful place, you can bargain for spices or Turku. The prices on the market are slightly higher than on the street, and the quality is the same.
For those who like to bargain, the green light. Haggling here (and not only here :)) is called lowering deliberately inflated prices for tourists. It is cheaper to go to an ordinary Turkish supermarket and buy the same thing, but at the usual price.
A real Turkish atmospheric bazaar
It is possible and necessary to bargain here
Sweets, dishes and much more
Not at all for the sake of shopping, for the sake of the atmosphere
And here, in the very depths, there is a good exchange rate of $ and €
A noisy oriental bazaar. Bright juicy colors, colorful sellers, touts. It's a very colorful place. There are a lot of people., reminded of the "Cherkizon" that has sunk into oblivion.
It's beautiful, but probably it will be difficult to call a purchase in such a tourist place profitable. Sellers get annoyed at the auction, the choice of goods is the same everywhere. In short, the Arbat for tourists is to go in and out
To visit, if you are in Istanbul, it is mandatory! If you don't buy it, then look at it "expensive-rich". And be sure to bargain, be sure! They will give for half of the price announced at first, it is checked. And the kebab with ayran in the milipuzer eatery is delicious!!
In general, I strongly recommend it.
A beautiful, bright, noisy bazaar. With a mind-blowing smell of spices. There are a lot of people, trade is active. Bargain, gentlemen, bargain! Prices can be reduced 2-3 times easily.
A beautiful and colorful place. They howled at every step, making it difficult to enjoy the atmosphere.
The prices are very high, I recommend leaving the central streets of the market and buying souvenirs there
An impressive place. It was the first time in by no means the only visit to Istanbul. Amazing energy. Even if you just walk by, you get into the story. Shops, touts, shops - not to buy, so at least to show off))) It is very beautiful, as if in a fairy tale of Scheherazade
Ярко, красиво, шумно, разнообразно, колоритно! Настоящий базар во всем его великолепии и разнообразии! По нему хорошо погулять не бегом, чтобы проникнуться атмосферой. Специи, сухофрукты, травы,чаи, сыры, оливки, лукум, халва и много-много всего ещё!
A large and beautiful market with oriental sweets. Unlike the grand bazaar, it is much more interesting. The price tag is high, they treat a lot and for free. If you want cheap sweets, then you need to go to the local markets.
A favorite place to buy sweets, spices, soap and dried fruits. There is always a huge choice, and there are still many shops on the street behind the market itself. Well, the architectural decoration inside is gorgeous.
A very peculiar place, but colorful, they are inviting from all sides, offering something, the price range is quite large, and everyone has the best and homemade :).
You can find not bad lukum, teas and spices, well, the photos are beautiful
I love this bazaar, clean and bright. There are many Russian-speaking sellers. But it got worse compared to 2021 - they put so many "inedible" stores in vain - watches, rags, etc.
And of course the prices are high
The place is very colorful, full of different colors, flavors, smells!!!
Anyone can find a product to their taste!
Almost everyone has terminals for payment, including contactless payment.
A cool place to take a walk and see all the delights of the bazaar. There are a lot of different products from gold to teas. Everyone is allowed to try. The atmosphere is wonderful.
A very interesting place, lots of spices, sweets, ceramics and people. I couldn't walk around the bazaar for a long time, because my head ached from the endless hubbub.
