O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Vrsta za vrsto stojnic se stiska v ozke uličice, kjer prodajalci kričijo ponudbe in zrak je gost od cimeta in kurkume. Več kot 1000 trgovcev prodaja vse od medeninaste posode do elektronike, barantanje je pričakovano, tako da lahko pogosto znižate ceno za 20-40 odstotkov.
Poudarki: Uličice z začimbami z nizkimi stropi oddajajo opojno mešanico cimeta, nageljnovih žličk in posušenega čilija, kjer lahko ena sama stojnica zloži več kot 80 različnih začimb v steklene kozarce, tako da lahko povonjate, preden kupite. Ribji koridor postane teatralen, ko prodajalci pod fluorescenčnimi svetilkami filetirajo 200-300 kilogramov ulova, mokra tla pa odsevajo bliske nožev in oster vonj po soli in limeti.
Notranji nasveti
- Wear closed-toe shoes and lightweight clothes because alleys are narrow and ground can be uneven.
- Keep valuables in a front pocket or money belt and use small denomination notes to speed transactions.
- Ask permission before photographing vendors and focus on colorful fabric stalls and spice towers for the best shots.
- Compare prices across several stalls when buying spices, textiles or electronics, and carry a reusable bag for purchases.
