There are 22 gates leading into the Grand Bazaar, called Kapaliçarşi in Turkish, and you could probably spend the day walking around the thousands of shops and not see them all. But after a few hours, you’ve probably waved off enough aggressive shopkeepers, bargained hard with a few of them, and seen enough spices, jewelry, textiles, clothing, leather and souvenirs. What is hard to find in this 550 year old market is good bathrooms, which is a major downfall when 250,000 to 400,000 people visit there every day. Diehard shoppers can also go to other traditional bazaars and markets (semt pazari) or several large, modern malls.
