Grand Bazaar
The Grand Bazaar consists of 4,000 shops on a series of covered
streets leading to a central avenue. The oldest sections are
the Sandal Bedesten (cloth auction) and Cevahir Bedesten (jewelry
market).
The streets are named according to the trades, such as gold
and silver sellers, carpet sellers, slipper sellers, bootsellers,
booksellers, pursemakers, etc. The most oriental atmosphere
in Istanbul is found in the bazaar, which also houses many
good restaurants and cafes.
