Bazar-e Bozorg

I like to visit the Grand Bazaar. If you want to buy local crafts such as carpets, you can come here. Of course, you can also come here if you want to buy some food. The area is very large and you can experience a place where locals live.

From the north of Imam Square, the market of the Isfahan Bazaar, there are many things to sell, basically clothes, in this is a pile of carpets to buy special carpet bazaars, there are also conscience sellers here, very, very big.

Just on the side of the square, it may be the reason for international economic sanctions, there are few foreign tourists, and the things sold are all daily necessities except some tourist crafts, especially the shops selling spices.

I don't know which is bigger than the Grand Bazaar in Tehran. According to a local grandfather, this plus more than 10 kilometers long, the scale should be at least comparable to the Tehran Bazaar. But this feels spacious and there are not so many people, unlike the messy feeling in Tehran. And Tehran is complicated and easy to get lost. So I prefer the Grand Bazaar of Isfahan. There are some light-transmitting holes in the vault of the market corridor, and they are all kinds of shapes. LP introduction can be from the Imam Square, through the Grand Bazaar to the Juli Mosque, we have been fortunate to be taken this road by an old grandfather, summer is very convenient, you can avoid the outdoor exposure. This is one of Iran's largest and most abundant bazaars, from household appliances to cheap clothes, traditional handicrafts, such as carpets, saffron, turquoise, electrical watches, and the price and quality may be the best in Iran, be sure to go shopping. Compared to Tehran's maze of grand bazaar, it is much easier to stroll around here.

Walk about 500 meters to the Grand Bazaar, in fact, in order to purchase vegetables and fruits in front of hastily passed, this time for the purpose of sightseeing can take pictures to see the scenery. The most impressive thing on the day was that it coincided with the holiday, and many shops in the Grand Bazaar were closed, especially in the area outside the Imam Square, and there was almost no shop open for business. I have seen the big bazaar's head moving, and I have never seen the big bazaar so deserted, and I walked to the big bazaar area near the imam square and saw the shops that were still open. It is only here that I can see the real big bazaar scene. People come and go to the store adjacent to the dazzling, Especially because the roof of the house is a myriad of domes connecting the growth corridors. Perhaps because of some festivals, some shops inside and outside the Grand Bazaar are giving some food to passers-by. We tasted free yogurt at a drink shop, and it really felt like drinking "Colgate" as the netizens said. Very strong toothpaste smell, this is the only time we tasted yogurt in Iran. There is also a batter delivery, the "battery" with dishes and noodles looks a bit bad, but the taste is really good after eating. We have seen the Grand Bazaar in Tehran, Shiraz and Yazd. In comparison, it feels more authentic. That night, we walked halfway through the Imam Square along the passage in the center of the square to watch the colored music fountain and surrounding scenery, and then walked into the Grand Bazaar under the lighting decoration, when the Grand Bazaar was still very lively. In the window of the rich ethnic characteristics of goods, glass, gold and silver, porcelain and other special goods shine under the light. The Grand Bazaar at night seems to be more attractive than during the day. Because it is late, there is no more stay, and I quickly walked past the Grand Bazaar and walked back to the hotel. Ending a five-hour hike at Grand Bazaar, Imam Square and the 33-hole Bridge,

Isfahan is equivalent to Iran's Shanghai, commercial city, trade developed, so the Grand Bazaar of various goods, carpet handicrafts selection is more, dazzling. Camel bones are finely painted, turquoise packages with vase utensils, etc. are good. Isfahan local products have 3 recommendations, 1. Copper tire process disc vase; 2. Here is also the origin of pistachios aubergine GAZ, when choosing the proportion of pistachios, there are also sugar-free sugar substitutes. Iran is the carpet origin, Isfahan local representative carpet is blue and white, cotton line base on the mixed woven silk wool urban flower type, the price is not high. But the Grand Bazaar also has many pure silk blanket choices, the origin is actually not local in Isfahan... The carpet depends on personal preferences and budgets... Friendly reminders, please prepare enough cash for shopping, you can't swipe your card.

The Grand Bazaar connects the Jama Mosque and Imam Square, which are 1 km away. There are beautiful murals on the gate of the Imam Square, Qeysarieh, but there are broken. I met a enthusiastic Iranian at this gate, knowing that we were looking for a plum smoke hall, so I took the initiative to show us the way. But when we were sitting in the plum smoke hall for a few minutes, we recommended a cloth shop to us, and we were in a hurry to take us there. Because the Iranians I met along the way were really enthusiastic and sincere, we also believed him and went with him. As a result, the price given by that store was more than several times that of other stores. My unsuspecting little friend had to pay on the spot, because I was hesitant to finally give up. In fact, this is the tow, I didn't expect Iran to have it. Give a wake-up call to friends who are going.
