Gold And Jewelry Shops In The Grand Bazaar And Beyazit:
The famous Grand Bazaar is actually the oldest shopping mall in history and it was once the largest one, this Bazaar actually has more than two thousands shops in total, of course not all of them are jewelry shops but, when you first enter the Grand Bazaar from the main door you will be amazed by the number of jewelry shops inside of it. Literally, there are more than a hundred jewelry shops.
You can find thousands of options and designs, so you need to be patient if you are shopping with your wife.
There are no specific shops that we can advise because all of the famous and local brands are available there with different prices and qualities and designs, you can find Ottoman designs, Modern designs, Turkish designs, Italian designs and many other designs for rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and even small gifts.
One of the things that is really interesting in the Grand Bazaar is the shops that sell golden coins. These coins are actually used to reserve money so if you have some dollars that you don’t know how to make profits from, you can easily buy a coin or couple of them and wait till the gold prices are higher and then you sell it but you need to make sure that you are buying at the right time because the gold prices might decrease not always increase. There are many kinds of coins, there is the Ata coin, and small coins and Ottoman coins and more kinds, each one of them carries different grams. This is why you find different prices for each one. Over all, these coins are made from pure 24 carat gold thus, you can literally save money and maybe make some profits when selling it later. Besides, they are easy to carry and you won’t need to get a safe for them.
There are more shops that you can find in Istanbul city, some of them are local while other are famous internationally but whatever shop you are buying from, be sure that you are buying from the masters.
