  • If you want a sophisticated place to shop, without too much insistent crafters, this is the place to shop. Quality of products is better than Kimironko and more variety..art, beautiful t-shirts, walking sticks, pot holders, baskets, magnets, wood craft,etc. And you can pay with card for a small additional fee. Its not as intimidating.
  • A fun place for souvenir shopping, but most of the places all carry the same few things. Most of the stalls have the same items, and a million of them, but a few have some more unique pieces, just take your time and look. Note what you like, where it was and a price you have negotiated (you can haggle down to 30-40% of the first quoted price). And since many of the vendors have the same stuff, you can see who wants your business more for those items in negotiating too. Some of the vendors are kinda pushy, and others are more invitational, so I tried to give my business to those who weren't so pushy.
