Name of Shop: Traditional Bazaar
The bazaar is in the western part of town. It offers all that you can imagine- from traditional clothes /gabi, shamma/, coffee pots, spices, domestic animals /donkeys, goats, sheep, chicken.../ to punched FC Chelsea t-shirts and Osama bin Laden's watches.
Really good experience, don't forget to bargain.
What To Buy: Coffee pots - cheap and fragile souvenir for 3birr /less than 50 cents/
Traditional clothes, it is possible to adjust it to your needs in nearby tailories /they wanted me to pay "as much as you want" - really unique in this country/
What To Pay: If you don't like bargaining, don't even go there. Otherwise take maximum 100birr (I heard donkeys are worth 250-300 birr :o)
