I must say this is trash, lovers of natural Uzbek trade go ahead, cars are up and down, the streets are littered with low-quality goods,there are beggars,there is no cleanliness, it is hot, there is no discipline and a lot of pluckers, prices are acceptable, but they overestimate tourists, be vigilant and attentive, but there are also kind ones who treat just like that, ask take a picture if you are not a local
The market is huge! There is everything! But be careful: check pistachios for freshness, they tried to sell us completely moldy ones. And there are also many beggars

There is something to see! And, if the stomach is strong, you can try a lot)) An abundance of oriental sweets, spices, and other goodies... The bazaar is open from five in the morning, and works until seven in the evening. There is an opportunity to taste a very delicious pilaf! However, try to do it up to two or three hours in the afternoon. Otherwise you risk being left without pilaf))
Assalom allekum or good time of the day dear readers of this review. The bazaar is located close to the center of Samarkand. There are a lot of interesting goods and food. The oldest bazaar is several centuries old.
Great market! The truth is less than in Bukhara. Take a look at the department with suits and dressing gowns - there are no such in Bukhara or Khiva! The robe was charged for 180, the suit for 250. It's a good price. Strawberries for 30-40 thousand per kilo. There is also a good tea house and an ATM!

A wonderful market with kind and polite sellers and a large selection of different products!
It is necessary to approach this campaign seriously, that is, to go around the entire bazaar, find out the prices, you must bargain, you also need to try
Siyab Bazaar is one of the oldest markets in the world. It was from here that the caravans of the Great Silk Road passed. Tourists are respected here and are fed free of charge with oriental sweets, which you will not find anywhere else. It was here that the great people of the world used to come to enjoy and taste delicious sweets. There are many things to say about Siyab bazaar. It is better to come and see and enjoy once than to hear about this place thousands of times

The market is old, there is little assortment for fresh food.
More emphasis is placed on tourists and souvenirs.
It would be good to implement it in a modern way and meet the requirements of customers.
Tip : before you buy something, compare the price of the same product from your neighbors, they may differ significantly) ☝️☝️😉
This is a tourist bazaar. And what it can be, adjacent to one of the main attractions of the city. All souvenir makers have the same Chinese shawls made of viscose, which are successfully issued for 100% wool
You will not find anything that is not available in the Moscow markets here. You can buy good seasonal fruits and vegetables, but you need to buy in the lower part of the market, it's cheaper there. Souvenir ceramics are also better to buy not in the central rows, but in shops in the far part. Save 50 percent.
My favorite place is the Siab market, Registan Square is not far from it, I come to the market to take a walk, buy something useful, the prices are acceptable, the people are friendly.
The bazaar is located in close proximity to the attractions that all tourists visit. It's convenient. We bought great spices, apricots, cherries and melons here. They drank mulberry (mulberry) juice, which the merchant scooped up with a mug directly from a huge basin with berries.
This is the trade center of the Silk Road! If you want to plunge into an oriental fairy tale, visit the Oriental Bazaar in Samarkand.

The disadvantage is that there are few ATMs on the territory, and they are very necessary, since not all sellers have the opportunity to make a payment by transfer to an account, not to mention just paying by card
The bazaar is good, a lot of vegetables and fruits like everything, bus access to the bazaar needs to be improved when you arrive at the bazaar, the road interchange needs to be done otherwise people suffer crossing the road there is no zebra
A large selection of anything, great prices, there is a bank branch for cheating currencies, if you have a day off, then look for money changers near the gate
Cool colorful bazaar with all the consequences. You can bargain, try, is it not happiness. Sellers don't look at you as a wallet. Well, you understand! R-recommend it!
Everything is fresh and delicious, thank you. We tried all the fruits at the beginning of May and got high , strawberries are sweet, delicious, cherries, everything seems to have been picked from the garden now
A real, lively Uzbek bazaar! A sea of dried fruits, nuts, sweets, fruits, etc. Locals come here from the vicinity of Samarkand to stock up on the necessary products, many restaurants buy tortillas here, which are just a sea! Be sure to walk through the rows, it's interesting!
Probably I expected too much, an ordinary bazaar, there is nothing interesting in it. For tourists, the price tag is doubled, of course, you can bargain, but they won't throw off the price much - you won't buy, the next one will buy. Sellers are friendly.
A very expensive bazaar, everything is for tourists. They didn't buy anything, it's cheaper here in Russia. It's a shame, but this is a "cranberry" for tourists.
For tourists, that's what you need.There is everything. And the famous rows of dried fruits. If you walk through the rows with dried fruits and try the product through at least one seller, then by the end of the rows you can eat up to the dump

An attractive place, unobtrusive sellers, prices for nuts in November 2023 were 10% cheaper than in Moscow. In the cafe, you can eat local food very cheaply.
