One of the most iconic places to visit in Istanbul. A classic oriental bazaar where you will be sold everything and even more. But be careful. Unexpected purchases are possible!

a tourist place. It's cleaner here than at the Grand bazaar. It's nice to walk. Nicely. They did not buy anything, the prices are higher than those of the merchants outside.

An expensive, atmospheric place. Of course, you can't leave here without sweets... When we were there, everyone was polite, no one bothered or shouted. Everything is friendly. In general, it is not possible to be in Istanbul and not visit this place.

The Egyptian bazaar captivated us with its variety of olives, spices, teas, cheeses, and the willingness to pack everything in a vacuum so that it could be brought home 😍
It is better to take lira, another currency is not profitable.

Great place! You can bargain, buy anything you want! Realizing at the same time that the product is consumer goods)) It's fragrant! colorful!

I love the open-air part of the bazaar. I buy coffee, soap, sweets here. You can always find reasonable prices. However, there are always crowds of people.

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)

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.

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.

They do not like to bargain at all and do not know how, even magnets do not want to sell for normal money, there are a lot of people, the goods are mainly consumer goods... If there is no specific seller who already knows you, then just understand and look at the architecture, so it pleases...

I like the Egyptian Bazaar more than the Grand Bazaar, we visit it without fail when we are in Istanbul. Firstly, we buy the most delicious Turkish coffee Mehmet Efendi there, secondly, we buy spices, a mixture of peppers, various mixes for all types of dishes, they are packed in vacuum packaging, the minimum is sold from 100 g., thirdly - teas, various fragrant fruit, floral, I would especially like to mention eucalyptus tea, which there are a lot of different things, but the most awesome one is that when they give it a try, one smell makes you cry, so vigorous. Once it got stuck in our throat and we were just walking around the bazaar, trying various teas, and they gave us a taste of this eucalyptus tea, after that tea everything went away, since then buying it is a mandatory item, and in winter at home during illness greatly relieves the symptoms of a cold. Fourthly, it is in the Egyptian bazaar that there are many jewelry shops where locals buy gold, and it was here that in different years I bought gold earrings and bracelets for myself and my daughter, I did not check the quality, but outwardly beautiful, they do not change color, ears do not hurt, locks are strong, my daughter wears both earrings and a bracelet filming, just like me. This is the main thing, and so there is a grocery market on the street, you can buy all kinds of cheeses, sausages, and many types of olives, and an analogue of churchkhela - dzhevizli sudzhuk- very tasty!, and all kinds of nuts, baklava, sweets, in general, everything. On the downside, there are a lot of people, especially in the grocery part. You can bargain, jewelry is not particularly traded, but they can make a discount, the price is per gram of gold in dollars. There is a bird market nearby, and various seeds and seedlings are sold.

The market is small, but as standard, all sellers have the same set of goods, spices and sweets are oriental at about the same price, almost all have a tax free plate, that is, they do not bargain

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.

Everything is exorbitantly expensive! Crowds of people. Sellers cheat with a preponderance! But it's a beautiful place. It's just worth a visit. I can't understand why it's Egyptian) some Turks) and the goods are Turkish and Chinese. I'm attaching a photo. How can a landmark be counted

I was here for the first time, it feels like half of China is here and the other half is from Asia. It's too crowded. But in the part of the market where it is national, you can find and try what you like. But, personally, I don't want to go there anymore.

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.

It's a very colorful place. Built in the Ottoman style in the shape of the letter L, it is formed by short and long galleries with painted vaulted ceilings. You may not be able to buy anything here, spices and sweets can be bought cheaper in Istanbul, but it's worth coming here for the atmosphere of a Turkish bazaar.

A beautiful pavilion. There's probably nothing much to take in the pavilion itself, so visit to see. There seems to be an old shop selling ground coffee at the exit. You can find it by the smell of coffee.

It's interesting to see.
Of course, they will sell what is more expensive.
Men getting up from the shops - do not go, wait in the cafe at the entrance of their ladies)))
To see, you can choose, but for a long time. Try to bargain.

Well, ready to visit, it conveys the atmosphere of Istanbul's flavor. It is necessary to bargain if you enjoy the process, but without bargaining, you will buy more expensive than the real cost.

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.

Go to the bazaar, go to the end, there is a fork. Turn right (you can also go forward), go through and, as it were, go out into the open sky. The further you go, the cheaper it is.
We were in different tourist areas, outside the Egyptian bazaar the best price.

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 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!
