[Grand Bazaar | The world's largest covered market! Istanbul's shopping labyrinth]

[Grand Bazaar | The world's largest covered market! Istanbul's shopping labyrinth] — Have fun while getting lost! A place where Turkish tradition and vitality intersect, where you won't get bored even if you spend a whole day there — The Grand Bazaar (Kapalıçarşı) is a huge market with over 600 years of history in the old city of Istanbul, a covered shopping street with over 4,000 stores lined up like a maze. If you're looking for "Turkish things" from traditional crafts to carpets, lamps, accessories, leather products, perfumes, gold products, sweets, and Turkish lamps, this is the place to come! ✨ Just walking around gives you a sense of exoticism, and you can experience something that seems timeless 🇹🇷 ⸻ 📍【Location】 Beyazıt, Kalpakçılar Cd. No:22, 34126 Fatih/İstanbul, Turkey Right next to the tram "Beyazıt", convenient access from the new town and Sultanahmet 🕰【Opening hours】 Monday-Saturday: 9:00-19:00 Closed on Sundays ⸻ ✨【Recommended points】 ・The scale is amazing! A super standard market that is "the place to go for souvenirs" ・This is the best place to look for traditional crafts, Turkish goods, and Turkish lamps ・Conversations and price negotiations with the shopkeepers will also be a memory of your trip! ⸻ 🎒【Tips】 ・Price negotiation is the basics! Enjoy interacting with the store clerks (but don't feel obligated to buy anything) ・Prices vary from store to store even for similar products! Take your time and compare ・It's easy to get lost, so remember the signs near the entrances to be safe! ⸻ #GrandBazaar #Istanbul #Turkey #AbsolutelyFreeTrip
