Don't forget to bargain, it's a tradition. And never turn down an offer of the shop owner - don't sweat, it's just "tea"! Misir Bazaar takes its name from the source of the spices in old times. The merchants of this colorful old covered market, also called the Spice Bazaar, sell spices, herbs, medicinals, dried fruits and a myriad of other goods in barrels and baskets. Today there are several boutiques found there The open-air bazaars in Istanbul are named either according to the neighborhood or according to the day on which they are held.
