2 Reviews I don’t remember its’ name, but this is a small orthodox church squashed between the huge building of a ministry and another tall one under construction just opposite.

mirchica Says: The name of the market says it all. Actually they are many stands for souvenirs, paintings, needlework, wooden crafts, and so on. Traders don’t miss to invite you to take a look at their products and you can really find some interesting and cheap present for your friends.
