curious about those new places they will discover and this is why in this episode
we will show you one of the local markets and the biggest one here in
Istanbul today is Wednesday so today there will be one local market in the
Fatih district close to Sultanahmet then we will go visit that one.
Going to the wednesday market or "Çarşamba Pazarı" in Turkish in the district of Fatih
is reachable from the most touristic area such as Sultanahmet.
Remember that the main bus stop and the closest one to Sultanahmet is the one in the port of Eminönü
from there you can always take the bus number 37E, 36KE or 336E
After 20 minutes maximum you'll reach the bus stop called Fatih and you'll get
off the bus there in just a couple of minutes away you can find the market
Before or after visiting the local market within the area we can find other
interesting and historic landmarks to visit and see.
Another side we can visit is the Fatih Mosque which is next to the local market
it was finished in 1470 and it was commissioned by the conqueror sultan
Mehmed II. Here the tombs of sultan Mehmed II and his wife can be found
and people can visit them as well.
As I mentioned before the local market will be set next to the mosque and
is the largest market in Istanbul.
This market only sets on Wednesday from early morning to about 6 p.m.
Here the locals come to buy different products such as clothing, foods, home decor and
much more. Literally we can find everything and the most fascinating
