Yashil Bazar, or Green Market, in Baku is one of the most popular places to buy fresh produce and local delicacies. This market, with its rich history and variety of goods, attracts both locals and tourists.
A large, covered market. A wide variety of vegetables and fruits. Prices are significantly higher than store prices. It seems that prices are higher for foreigners than for locals. You need to be careful when weighing and final calculation.
A good market! There is a large selection, a lot of vegetables, fruits, nuts, Azerbaijani tea. It's just a pity that we stopped here on the last day before departure - there was no room left in the luggage, but I really wanted to buy)
The market is the heart of the city. You can buy everything. Bargain and buy. But still, the market is chaotic as always with a lot of homogeneous goods. It seemed to me that it was still too small for Baku. And if we talk about prices, it's more expensive there than buying in stores. But the place is very atmospheric. I recommend.
Get ready that you will be deceived here.
And the prices are very high, but you can bargain. You'd better go deeper.
But it tastes better than in the supermarket anyway.
Beautiful, spacious, but I suspect that it is intended mainly for tourists.
Prices are high, even if compared with Moscow. We were with a local resident and he was haggling, so it was necessary to buy baklava, nuts, figs and dried fruits at a more or less adequate price. But it is not small either. There are a lot of non-local products and this is upsetting. If you want the same thing, but cheaper, you can go to any supermarket - especially with your own bakeries. As a result, I bought pomegranates there for 1 manat (there were from 2 to 5 on the market), and persimmons for 1.5, and baklava for 2 times cheaper.
But it's worth taking a walk around the bazaar - as a tourist destination. Well, to see how the famous black caviar is sold (they offer to try it, but we did not).
The price of vegetables and fruits is too high. In principle, the same products can be found in the center of Baku and cheaper. Strawberries from 5 mana. Tomatoes from 4 manats. Sherbet is 18 manats per kg. Halva for a small package is 7 manats. You can get from the center by taxi in 3-4 manatts or by metro and walk a little on foot.
A small market. There is everything that is always available in the markets. Meat, fish, vegetables, fruits, nuts, baklava and sweets, and caviar by weight
Don't waste your tourist time, apricots were offered for 15 manats (+-780₽) when in Moscow they are 250₽ all the best in supermarkets, surprisingly but a fact. The range of products as in Moscow on foodcity
I recommend it to everyone, a good modern market, with excellent prices for everything, I recommend tourists to buy souvenirs and goodies, there is black caviar at the best prices in Baku
Personally, I didn't like the word at all.
There is not even a bazaar atmosphere. No color. Everything is kind of lazy and sleepy.
It looks like a bazaar for tourists. Expensive, nothing special. Fruits and vegetables in street markets are several times cheaper. Dried fruits are also cheaper in small shops. There is no point in coming here at all. Sellers advertise in several languages. 3 Englishmen were dragged around, apparently brought here for shopping.
A regular grocery market with local products. We went with a guide to buy Azerbaijani tea. There is a point at the entrance where, as the guide said, he buys tea himself from a woman who grows this tea herself on plantations in Lankaran (a subtropical region in southern Azerbaijan). We bought many different types of tea. It turned out to be really tasty.
The place is colorful, expensive. It's cheaper in stores. It was very difficult to pay off the cards by bank transfer. But! Very kind and positive people around, they give everything a try, but then it's a shame that you don't buy from them. Nearby there is a delicious local cafe, with a good price tag. Ask the locals, they will show you. A beautiful country with wonderful people.
This market is not located in the old part of the city, but on the contrary, in a more residential part of it. But, the market is huge!!! Greens, fruits, meat, cheese...just a huge amount. If you go to Azerbaijan for a long time and cook, then this is an ideal place to buy groceries
A very cool place! We bought goodies, chatted with the sellers, tried everything! The prices are great! It's a pity the customs took everything away in Russia!
For children 7+, as well as their parents, after climbing to the upper floors, if they are tired of walking and it's time to go down - gorgeous slides for a quick descent)
A good bazaar, lots of fruits, Nuts, vegetables, it is mandatory to bargain for a discount of 20%. A colorful place, there are fish pavilions with sturgeon and all kinds of fish.
I expected more. Moscow markets are richer and more colorful. You don't have to come here. It looks more like a warehouse. The problem with check-in and check-out. The road is standing.
There are no
price tags, local prices are low, the market is focused on tourists. A good selection of fruits, vegetables, dried fruits and sweets

The market did not meet our expectations. There is no local flavor, prices are higher than in chain stores, if the seller sees that you are a tourist, the price is even higher. Goodies need to be looked for at distant exits, where sellers do not pay for a place and not resellers, what they brought is sold.
The bazaar is large, the choice is appropriate.
But the tourist is seen immediately and the price becomes x2 or x3, or even more.
Even if you bargain, you will still remain in the red.
We went to the shopping center with the company and found everything we needed there at reasonable prices (teas, spices, armudas, etc.)
If you want to take something at the market, then go there with a local resident.
We were also advised to visit the market near the Salyan highway, I don't remember the name, they say everything is democratic there at prices.
Mostly fruits and vegetables, there are some souvenirs, nuts, dried fruits.
It's clean for the market. The price is average, and of course you need to be able to bargain)
The market is located near the Heydar Aliyev Center. You can buy fruits, vegetables, packaged tea and by weight, sweets. Sellers are polite, do not shout, do not call, do not pull the sleeves. They treat you with sweets and fruits.
The Green Bazaar is like all food markets, where you can find everything! To bargain, however, we did not really succeed, but we tried it, bought baklava - mom baked!)) I can't say that it's cheaper than in the store, but for the sake of immersion in the local flavor, you can visit.
Very colorful. The aesthetics of the fruits and goods placed and the reigning smells are definitely worth a visit, even if you don't plan to buy anything

You can go if you really want to see the colorful bazaar and know how to bargain) you can buy delicious sweets, tea and of course fruits)
I expected more, the fish rows are very meager, there were 2 sturgeons of 3-5 kg and sad sellers nearby. I bought azerchayu and fresh lemons, but I looked, there are few exotics
