Most shops are open Monday to Saturday from 9.30 am to 6 or 7 pm, although some take a lunch break from 1pm to 2 pm. Food shops generally open early 6 or 7 am and close late 7 or 8 pm. One food shop in each neighbourhood remains open on Sunday.
Jewelry, handicrafts, leather apparel, carpets, brass and copperware, and carved meerschaum are all good buys. Bargaining is a must for souvenirs, and also if you are buying several things from one shop, or shopping off-season. You can bargain for hotel rooms too if you are visiting off-season, between November and April, or if you plan to spend more than a few days.
