The Grand Bazaar in Istanbul is Turkey's largest covered shopping market. With thousands of stores, it's an overwhelmingly exhilarating experience. As the end of our trip neared, we had less time, less money, and less space to purchase everything we wanted but enjoyed the afternoon strolling through the tip of the iceberg.
The ubiquitous evil eye—here and there in Jordan and Egypt, but ALL OVER Turkey!
Turkey has some of the most beautiful lanterns I have ever seen—another reason to return.
Traditional Turkish designs decorate bowls, plates, and tiles everywhere.
Of course, no country visit is complete without a new scarf... or two.
Oh, the jewelry... so unique and so beautiful.
