Qué comprar en Turquía
shopping@shoppingInDescription
Es imposible visitar Turquía y no acabar seducidos por la gran variedad de artículos expuestos en sus mercados, bazares o centros comerciales. Lo más buscado son las alfombras, ya que además de resultar muy baratas son de muy buena calidad. También las lámparas, la seña de identidad del país y que se caracterizan por su alegre colorido.
Turquía también es un buen lugar para comprar imitaciones de ropa o complementos en cuero, algodón o seda. Los lugares más frecuentados para realizar este tipo de compras son el Gran Bazaar, una de las paradas imprescindibles en Estambul; o el Mahmutpaşa Bazaar, de menor tamaño pero con gran variedad. El área de la moderna Taskim se ha convertido en los últimos años en la zona de moda. Allí es donde se encuentran las grandes firmas, además de callejones con antigüedades.
Entre los centros comerciales destacan el Demirören Istiklal y el Cevahir, repleto de tiendas para todos los gustos. Por su parte, en la región de Anatolia destacan las tiendas de artesanía. La mejor cerámica se encuentra en Avanos, mientras que en Göreme se pueden encontrar grandes reliquias y los artículos más típicos del país: el ojo turcode la suerte, de todos los tamaños e incorporados en diferentes tipo de artículos.
Antiques
Istanbul is full of antique shops. Although many of these pieces can be found in markets such as Mahmutpaşa Bazaar or in the small adjoining shops of the Grand Bazaar, the truth is that one of the best places to buy antiques is in the Çiçek Pasajı, in Nevizade. In Cappadocia, you can also find shops with authentic relics, most of them in Göreme.
Carpets
An iconic product of Turkey. Both in Grand Bazaar and the surrounding areas, in Istanbul, there are a plethora of carpet shops. If you want something a little special then the most recognized shop, worldwide, is Cinar, in the street of Nuruosmaniye Cad. In the Anatolian region is also frequent to find factory stores that are the perfect choice for finding quality at a good price.
Clothes
Turkey has many good brand imitations. Most of these garments can be found in the Grand Bazaar or in other markets in the city. Leather goods such as jackets or bags also have a good reputation, although you will have to spend time comparing their quality with the price. Istiklal and the area of Taskim, are the best streets for shopping, since it is where the big firms and the most trendy boutiques in the city can be found, although the prices are not very cheap.
Lamps
Turkey is the paradise of lamps whose main attraction is the vivid colours of its crystals. With the same materials they also make ashtrays, jars and other decorative items. In Istanbul, the area of Santa Sofia is full of small shops where they sell only lamps. It is also easy to find them in stores in Cappadocia. The price usually ranges between 20-30 euros.
Pashmina Scarves
One of the most abundant fashion accessories in Turkey. They are usually made of silk and cotton and can be found in clothing stores as well as in markets such as Grand Bazaar or Mahmutpaşa Bazaar, in Istanbul. The adjoining streets are full of small shops with scarves and all kinds of accessories. Usually, those that are sold in the bazaar are quite cheap; haggling can take the price down to around 5 euros.
Spices
Spices are one of the most typical products of Turkey. If you are in Istanbul, one of the largest and most popular is the spices bazaar, where you can buy spices both by weight or in packages. Some of the most famous spices are curry, cardamom, nutmeg or saffron, among others. The price will depend on your bargaining skills.
