Antalya
This sprawling covered bazaar, dating to the late 15th century, is centred between Kazım Özalp Caddesi and İsmet Paşa Caddesi, just north of the Kaleiçi district. There are plenty of jewellers, metalwork merchants and textiles to be found here, among the sundry nargiles (water pipes), Ottoman-patterned tiles, spices and Spiderman suits.
To buy direct from the supplier, take a wander through the copper workshops in the alleyways west of Kazım Özalp Caddesi as well.
