Definitely visit and enjoy a Turkish café, but I would rather not shop here, much too expensive

Arasta Bazaar itself is situated in Sultanahmet, south east of the huge and rather beautiful Blue Mosque. As a side note, underneath the bazaar, you can check out some history, by visiting the Great Palace Mosaic Museum – a real two for one bargain!

A beautiful Turkish bazaar... rich in antiques and souvenir shops, as well as silver and spice shops.
Here the atmosphere is calm compared to Istanbul's well-known markets such as Misir Bazaar and Grand Bazaar.
Prices are high compared to other places... so I recommend bargaining before purchasing.
It is better to buy spices, nuts and tea from Misir Bazar or from "Fatih District" as these places offer the best quality and price for them.
