Kadriye City Center

The size and scope of business has suffered somewhat since the opening of the Land of Legends. But prices and offer are still significantly better than around the hotel facilities. Also the quality of the offered goods fits. We have 2, 3 Stammhändler we like to visit and shop there. In my opinion recommended for all holiday shopper in the area.

A place where you can feel at home and see high quality products at comfortable and affordable prices.

You can think of Kadriye as an open-top shopping mall. Good quality products at affordable prices

You can buy some little things and bags, suitcases at reasonable prices. But for many goods, prices are inflated, or float from store to store: clothes, sweets. The range of clothes we managed to see is not very large here. But inexpensive souvenirs are well presented. Going shopping is just very difficult and uncomfortable to look at, as sellers immediately start following you, obsessively asking what you are looking for and offering good - in their opinion - options. If this does not suit you, then carry something else.

Tourist market. Junk. Cheap junk for a lot of money. They don’t drag by the hands, but don’t calmly pass, everyone is inviting. Assortment of Chinese factories. Everything is old-fashioned, of poor quality, but can be nicely packed in a branded red bag ? The shopping alley itself starts at the final stop of the 25th bus. There immediately there are two local mini-markets BIM and SOK (super discounters, boxes are on the floor, Pts are cheap), a limited range, products, water, household goods, diapers. Further above the clothing and textile stores, the parasol alley begins, diverges to the left and a few parasols to the right. It ends with a small square with benches and animal figures (beaten, broken) and cafes. There you can take a photo and drink a glass of ice beer, turkish coffee or tea. If you ask, they will show you how to get to the Migros supermarket, it is nearby in the back streets. He is already more civil like our five. To summarize. For shopping, this bazaar is the bottom. If only you are very sociable and that one is still a rogue, you can outwit a Turkish merchant, and want to bring with you what you buy at your clothing store many times cheaper)) if you just go for a walk there, it's better not to heat it. If you have planned a budget for shopping, then go to the shopping alley in the Land of Legend (I will write a review there), there are not only Gucci and Armani, there is a Turkish mass market (Waikiki, Ltb, mavi and others). We buy coffee for souvenirs at home in simple supermarkets, in Migros there are sweets. I also always bring cool food containers for snacks, lunch boxes from there, they are very nice, with dividers, with a bunch of sections. Rarely, there are dishes, Turkish glasses for tea, souvenir mugs. Oils, shampoos, cosmetics, either in the supermarket or in simple pharmacies. Have a nice rest!)

A place where you can shop. The Turks invite you to visit them from the door. I did a nice shopping. You have to look for better prices and bargain. Overall, I recommend the place. You can get here by a small bus from hotels closer to the hotel. The ride here costs 5lirs. It is better to pay liters in the bus because it is more expensive in euros.
