Shopkeepers are humble and tolerant towards tourists.
Their native language is generally Turkish, but there are also some who speak Arabic. If you do not know these languages, it would be better if you go with a tour guide who speaks English and Turkish.
Sellers are usually open to negotiation and will offer you tea or Turkish coffee if they understand that you are a serious customer.
In this market, there are various decorated and hand-embroidered copper products that require labor to produce. There are tens of thousands of beautiful products, but you can cook very nice Turkish coffee with copper coffee pots. The pink-orange colored ones are plain copper, but the gray colored ones are tinned. These coffee pots do not take up space in your suitcase and are very light.
In addition to copper, souvenir furniture and mother-of-pearl craftsmanship products can also be found in this market.
Very authentic place! Highly recommended to visit! You won’t leave without getting some new copper items for your kitchen. However, be mindful—there are both factory-made and handcrafted pieces, so prices and quality vary. Also, don’t forget to buy the famous Antep pepper! 🌶️
Visited the place to buy some copper items. All handcrafted right inside the stores. They have handmade leather shoes, cold pressed oil from any kind of seeds you can think of.

Was a different experience. Bit pricy but its a tourist place same as everywhere. Whatchout for bikes and motorcycles they run through the baazar recklessly
Beautiful bazaar with vendors selling a lot of copper handcrafts, spices, and many other traditional things. We spent many times here.
