Lika

Grand Bazaar is only four minutes on foot away from Lika and its one of the world’s first shopping markets, the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul, Turkey, is also one of the largest covered markets today. The strategic location of Istanbul helped it in emerging as the hub of trade and commerce in the Mediterranean.
There are four main gates to the Grand Bazaar – one at each of the two major streets, whose intersection is at the southwest corner of the shopping center.
