The Markets of Istanbul

Glass Lamps in the MarketWhen in Istanbul, everyone needs to visit the Market to pick up some souvenirs of Turkey to take home with them. A visit to the market by the New Mosque, is a must do. You can buy Turkish candies, sweets, spices, textiles, glass lamps, evil eye jewelery, silverware and just about anything else.

I bought some t-shirts, some candy, some glass lamps and some evil eye jewelery. When I visited the Market with the little boy of Istanbul, we bought a sweat shirt, a nice pair of black jeans and some shoes. They probably don’t fit him anymore, but I’m sure his little brother will be wearing them next.
