The old
bazaars in cities of Iran were not only the traditional trading center but also
the meeting point for social and cultural interactions. Walk through the maze
of intersected chambers where the sellers drink tea and speak loudly in very
sweet Turkish dialect, buy souvenirs from thousands of shops called “Hojre”
selling very high-quality handmade shoes, jewelry, delicious sweets and
heavenly beautiful handmade carpets and feel the Iranian pop culture in the
grand bazaar of Tabriz.

The great
Bazaar of Tabriz with 1 kilometers length, 20 rows (series of shops along a
chamber called “Raasteh”), 25 arcades (round spaces with domed roofs called
“Timcheh”) and the high arcs and domes ornamented by eye catching brick works is
counted as an architectural masterpiece. There are also several mosques,
schools and caravanserais in Bazaar of Tabriz making this old heritage a place
where you will explore and wander through for hours.
Many of the
Uppersia tours, like photography tour, Silk Road tour and untouched tour
include the great city of Tabriz and its amazing attractions like Kandovan, El
Goli and especially the great bazaar.
