Eritrea

Shopping in Eritrea

  1. A

    Medebar Market

    Duck up northeast to soak up the atmosphere of the Medebar Market. No doubt you'll be awestruck the minute you enter this mind-boggling place. It is like an open-air workshop where absolutely everything is recycled: old tyres are made into sandals, corrugated iron is flattened and made into metal buckets, and olive tins from Italy are made into coffeepots and tiny scoopers.

  2. B

    Massawa Supermarket

    The best stocked if you're preparing for a picnic, a trip to the islands or an expedition through Dankalia.

  3. C

    Bellavista Supermarket

    Opposite Massawa Supermarket. Another worthwhile option if you need to load up on food.
