Turkish market (bazaar)
  • Tip Rating:
  • Once a week there is a street market in Turgutreis and there you can really buy all kinds of things if you're willing to go through the crowd and bargon with the people selling.

    Well, if you decide going to the street market, a good idea would be to buy something turkish! That could be something of turkish art, like kilim. Killim is a type of a carpet or a rug, usually hand made. The Kilim is a truly remarkable tradition maintained by women of Anatolia for hundreds of generations, dating back nine thousand years. Turkish mothers and daughters maintained this mysterious tradition for the last thousand years as Turkish tribes settled in Anatolia and intermingled with the local population.

    Depends on what you're bying!

    Fruit market
  • Tip Rating:
  • The fruits look very inviting and are very tasty. Living in a country in the north I often eat imported fruits but never have the peaches and watermelons in Sweden tasted as the ones in Turkey. Take the chance and eat a lot of fruit of the season! In Bodrum there is a big fruit market above the otogar, just in front of a supermarket. The second time I went there it was empty, but probably because it was Sunday and therefore closed.

  • This product called Capan is widely used by the turkish people. Its used as a freshner for your hands or face, and can even be used as an aftershave, it comes in a bottle or spray and its really cooling on a hot day. Its got a refreshing smell of ripe lemons and i have herd that it keeps the mosquitoes away as well

    We picked up 2 bottles for 5 pounds at the market on sat

    Big Bazaar
  • Tip Rating:
  • Bodrum is also like a big market, I mean if you are interested in shopping (or to put it more correctly "marketting":D) this is the right place. You can find lots of cute,cheezy, stylish things:) and don't be afraid of haggling:) BUT!!! one of the most important warnings! Keep your purse closer to your heart or to whatever:))))))) ...I mean that some of the local inhabitants are very good at pulling purses out of the pockets of careless tourists:))))) good luck and have a nice time!

    IN GENERAL: SHOPPING IN BODRUM
  • Tip Rating:
  • One of the joys of visiting Turkey is the vast array of shopping, you can get almost anything here at a fraction of the price you would pay in most countries. Bodrum has a great shopping area which is located from the bus station all the way down to the marina. This photo was taken in the main shopping area near mc donalds, but it does get very busy here at night

    Every Turkish town has its bazaar , which is the market. In Bodrum the bazaar is very nice. You can buy many nice things there and usually you come out from there with lots of things that you don't need. Don't forget to bargain for the prices, that is the Turkish way!

    Hand made sandals
  • Tip Rating:
  • Hand made sandals Skilled artisans can make you a pair of snugly fitting leather sandals in the traditional Aegean style. You will find craftsmen in the centre of Bodrum - like Ali Usta and others. You can either order or try one of the pairs they have in stock. Even Mike Jagger has one of these Bodrum hand made sandals of Ali Usta...

    sandals for a fresh breath of your feet:)

    that depends what kind of o sandal you wish or how long it takes to produce it... between 40 to 200 Euros.
