When picturing India, you think of a bustling country. You can certainly find that energy and liveliness that you would expect at the Chor Bazaar, which used to be known as the Bazaar of Thieves. While it has evolved from its colorful past as the center of India’s black market, there are still lots of antiques and other bargains to find here. It is a great place to pick up a souvenir.

This seaside promenade has one of the best shopping experiences of Cyprus. The old historic house and roads are very pleasant to walk through while you shop for authentic Greek/Turkish/Cypriot souvenirs. Also a lot of small restaurants and bars are found on this promenade making this a good area to shop and relax, in the daytime and night time!

The Souks is a market where you can buy all kinds of handcrafted basket, copper and other Moroccan artifacts. Do not forget to bargain and haggle on the price. This market is one location that is a must to visit for people that like to have locally made products. Of course you have to be careful what you buy but guaranteed you will find a souvenir or memorabilia from Marrakesh!
