For antiques and traditional craftwork, head for the atmospheric Kizlaragasi Han. This covered market is a fine example of Ottoman architecture where you will find artisans selling everything from copper kitchen utensils to kilims. If you’re looking for a nargile (Turkish Water pipe) to take home, then Ilhan Etike has some of the finest.
