    Kemeralti is a general shopping area in the heart of the city. I could say that it is a typical bazzar, where you can find anything to buy , in very good prices..

    What To Buy: clothes, shoes, antiques, local crafts, gifts, jewelry

    • The Kizlaragasi Han (inn), a fine example of 18th-century Ottoman architecture of the period, is my favourite bazaar in Izmir. Especially I always buy very beautiful ceramics from some shops in this bazaar, and I always enjoy a turkish coffee in any of the most nice cafe of the town, which are situated inside this old building

    What To Buy: Ceramics, silver jewelry, carpets, traditional gifts

    • Even if I never do this at shopping, I think that the turks do this without asking this. Actually I bought many nice things in very good prices, maybe because I m a greek:)) and also they gave some nice souvenirs as presents.

    • This shop is situated also in Kizlaragasi han and i found some very interesting old things from old Izmir, from 1922 and before, when Greeks were leaving there. I found old greek books and some very nice pieces which always will remind the history of Smirna (Izmir).

    • In all my trips to Izmir , i was always visited this shop with ceramics. It is in the closed Kislaragasi han. They are handmade and handpainted. Perfect choice for presents. I have whole collection of them!
