Grand Bazaar

This maze of over 5,000 shops in Istanbul has been around since the 15th century—beyond the perfume oils, carpets, and clothing on offer, you’ll also find some of Turkey’s best street food being served from its stalls. Here, the famous Donerci Sahin Usta serves what is probably Istanbul’s best doner kebab; other little kitchens serve out quick bites like menemen, a traditional omelet with peppers and tomatoes; ayran, a savory yogurt-based drink.
