Kemeralti is Izmirs sprawling historic bazaar, a labyrinth of covered streets and hans dating back centuries, selling everything from textiles, jewellery and clothing to spices, dried fruit and household goods. Interspersed with mosques, courtyards, coffee houses and synagogues, it is both a shopping destination and a living slice of history. Bargaining through its crowded lanes is one of the great Izmir experiences and the best place to shop like a local.
