One of my most memorable places in Istanbul by SeattleRain

I went shopping there on my last day. One of the merchants there introduced himself and walked me around the entire bazaar and helped me with my souvenir shopping then bought me a beautiful scarf. He also asked me out to dinner but I declined since I wanted to spend my last night in Istanbul with friends. So instead he kissed my hand and said goodbye.

There are about 6 types of items sold at the bazaar. You must bargain, state your price first. Be prepared to walk away. They may follow.

I’m not a materialist, I’m not, nevertheless 2 words…. red gold = D~ The whole concept of a bond between gold and copper is just, well, it’s just… sexy!

This is a great place to visit but beware of any “helpful” young male locals who offer to show you round. They are after money and if you are female they can be extremely pushy.

I know of one young girl who was raped because she was too polite to say no.
