kemeralti market

这个市场是伊斯密耳最大的传统市场，最古老的部分在室内，室外的部分是后来发展出来的。感觉很像伊斯坦布尔的那个。市场里除了游客，当地人也很多。这里基本上都是一些价格不会的小玩意儿。价格整体还算公道，不需要过多的砍价。

Completely different from the rest of the city which is very modern. This old traditional district is not only very touristic, it's also very popular and crowded and you can do lots of business with any kind of goods. Try it !

There is different from Alsancak.Crowded but cheap.You can find everything in Kemeralti.If you come Izmir.You should visit Kemeralti.

Prices are amazingly low, I bought a letter jacket for 50 bucks. But watch out the crowd , there is always a danger of pickpocketing.

This is the most interesting bazaar I have ever been too. It consists of a labyrinth of narrow cobbled streets containing hundreds of tiny shops selling anything from textiles, spices, kebabs, wedding attire to gold. We even stumbled across a small blacksmiths in the heart of the market. Unlike Grand Bazaar in Istanbul, this market is unspoilt by tourism. A must is a visit to the Hann where locals enjoy traditional tea and vendors sell their wares.

Full of energy and winderful chaos. Also' terrific food stands in every direction. Spices, soaps, antiques, and charm. Jewelry looks good and bargain able!

I felt watched all the time I was there, and harrassed most of the time. If you look more like the local population though, you are in for a treat of entire streets of goods to choose from.

Stopped by the Kemeralti Market whilst in Izmir, and found it to be a interesting market, that's geared more towards the locals. There's lots of goods here,from clothing to kitchen ware, toys, fruits, vegetables, fish, cheese, even jewelry and other trinkets. And prices in general aren't too expensive. Izmir isn't a touristy city compared to Istanbul, and I found the Kemeralti Market fascinating because it gives some insight into the daily life and the standard of living for the average Turk living in Izmir.

If you want to experience an older part of Izmir head to the market to get lost in its labyrinth of alleys and passages. I did not find the quality of goods for sale that great or interesting but it is still a fun place to spend some time

I visited the "pasar" during a short stay in Izmir. I really enjoyed shopping here because it was small and manageable compared to bigger historic markets. Also, there was very little pressure from the vendors to buy....this made our shopping a much more pleasant experience. Prices were cheaper than in Istanbul.

very historic place.poor neibrhood of the city. street vendors. you will observe how common people lives in Turkey. its definitely worthed to see.

there are too many shops but there is nothing worth buying. I suggest to go kızlar agası hanı and drink Turkish coffee. You can buy gifts , trinket, silver jewelry at kızlar agası hanı.

Variety of the goods and the prices were great for us, and we are from Scandinavia. However, if you are from a place with already great shopping value, like North America, Dubai etc, then you might be not that impressed. Nevertheless, there are also spices, fresh seafood, excellent street food, so worth strolling through it anyways.Remember to bargain. There, it doesn't mean you are cheap, it simply means you join the game of "a Bazaar of the East". It's a lot of fun and you get to drop the price by 20-30%.One negative though: On Saturday it was VERY crowded, and some shop keepers can be insisting to the point of being annoying. But then, we went there again Wednesday afternoon, and it was a lot more enjoyable and peaceful, yet still lively.

We have visited a few places in Turkey and found some (Kusadasi) to be excellent and really enjoyable with a good level of banter, and others (Marmaris) to be awful where you are being bombarded to buy stuff, so when we went to Izmir we did not know what to expect.We got off our cruise ship and decided to walk into the market. It was the start of the Republic day bank holiday so there were many flags in view and a really nice atmosphere to go with it. We arrived in the market around 10am and were approached by a lot of shop / stall holders touting for our business and as it was the end of the season there were not many tourists around so we did get more than our fair share.What was really nice was that we did look at a few stalls and bought some items, but we were approached lots for leather jackets which we did not want nor need and we politly declined, and were wished to have a nice day - no hard sell nor pushy attitude and it made shopping in the market very enjoyable.We did a bit of haggling - but being English we are not very good at it. My daughter wanted a leather purse so we were buying that in a shop and the shop owner wanted to arm wrestle me! (I am a big man and am used to be touched / patted etc in Greece, Turkey and the like) Anyway I won the arm wrestle and got a hefty discount, the shop owner then went to get his friend to arm wrestle me - but he cheated as this guy was left handed. After a few minutes of stalemate we called it a draw and we went on our way much to the amusement of our Children.We enjoyed walking around Izmir and really enjoyed the market and would definitely return, as an introduction to Turkish markets / bazaars this is a very friendly place to start.One last tip - use the bathroom before you go. They do have toilets for use at the cost of 1TL but they are not that nice.

Fantastic place for open market lovers, have many districts,which you can find from fresh food, fish to garments, gold, textile, even iron equipment etcIt is traditional shopping place in the heart of the city, you can eat tasty foods at very reasonable prices
