Malcolm Shabazz Harlem Market

Lonely Planet may earn a commission from affiliate links on our site. All recommendations and reviews reflect our own independent opinions.

This semi-enclosed market is a little slice of West Africa in Harlem. You'll find leather goods, wood carvings, textiles, woven baskets, oils, drums, clothing, sculptures and a stupendous array of assorted African everything, much of it geared towards tourists. The market is run by the Malcolm Shabazz Mosque, the former pulpit of slain Muslim orator Malcolm X.
