Pasar Inpres
The main market is the rambling Pasar Inpres off Jl Soeharto in the south of the city. It's mostly fruit and vegetables, but some ikat and handicrafts can be found in stores near the Terminal. Bizarre ti'i langga (conical hats) from Rote make a fun purchase, but try fitting one in your backpack.
To get there, take bemo 1 or 2 and follow the crowd when you get off.
