You can reach the dream world of the mystical east in the Spice Bazaar or Spice Market next to the New Mosque in Eminönü. Sultanahmet, in the old part of the city, has also become a separate shopping center in recent years. It is possible to see the craftsmen working and buy what they make in the Istanbul Arts Bazaar in the 18th century Mehmet Efendi Madrasa and the 16th century Caferağa Madrasa built by mimar Sinan nearby.
The exclusive shops in the Taksim – Nişantaşı – Şişli districts reflect the opposite of the chaos in the market places. On Istiklal, Cumhuriyet and Rumeli Streets, you can easily visit the shops selling stylish models produced from Turkey’s high-quality textiles and shop. In the shopping complexes opened one after another, there are branches of the most stylish stores in Istanbul.
