Grand Bazaar! “Turkey under one roof”

Istanbul's historic Grand Bazaar resembles a
living museum with its 557 years of history.
The Grand Bazaar was built in 1461 as one of
the most important projects of the Ottoman
Empire's economy following the conquest of
Istanbul by Sultan Mehmed II.
Designed like a giant labyrinth with interesting
aesthetics.
In Turkish, the Grand Bazaar is also known as
Kapalıçarşı, which means ‘covered bazaar’.
