Having selected and shown you the best modern malls to visit, we now take you to the heritage side of shopping, so tighten your belts:

  •  Grand Pazar:

Or, as its name was popularized among the Turks, the closed market (Kapalı Çarşı), which is well known.

One of the largest and oldest markets in the whole world, which was built in 1461 AD during the reign of Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror, as it was a center for the textile trade, it was expanded in the sixteenth century and with time other shops were opened in it.

It is located in the famous Beyazit area  with an area of 40 thousand square meters, it has 11 entrances or doors that you can enter from any one of them to find inside it nearly four thousand shops, in which gold, precious jewelry, original clothes and leather are sold, in addition to luxurious foreign furniture and carpets  .

Despite the earthquakes and fires that occurred in it, it still holds together and  proves its importance and popularity to this day.

 

  • Egypt Market (Mısır Çarşı):

The second largest closed traditional market after the Grand Bazaar, built in 1660 as a Beni Annex to the Yeni Camii or the Mosque of the Sultan's Mother in the  Eminönü region.

Its name came from spices, medicinal herbs and other products that were imported annually from Egypt through the Cairo convoy, with a design similar to the letter (L) and with six entrances,

The market consisted of eighty-eight rooms, where prescriptions were prepared from herbs.

Today, tea, dried fruit and nuts are sold, as well as shops selling jewellery, fabrics, cooking utensils and even souvenir pieces.

It is worth mentioning the presence of an impressively designed area  called Dua Meydanı, where the call to prayer is raised, as well as when the market opens, traders are invited to bless and live.

This historic market caught fire twice, 1691 and 1940,  devouring large parts of the market, causing heavy losses, but it has maintained its beauty, vitality and popularity until today, taking you on a journey through time to the period of Ottoman rule, adding an indescribable feeling that you will feel when you set foot on the market ground.
