Trabzon Bedesten
Ortahisar, Trabzon
An Ottoman bedesten in the part of the historic bazaar sloping down to the coast, restored and now home to shops selling local products.
Its story
The bedesten is in Trabzon's historic commercial district, in the part sloping down from the city center toward the coast. In the building, restored faithfully to the original, there are today shopkeepers selling local goods and souvenirs; one of the old spaces inside has been arranged as a cafeteria. Together with buildings such as the Çarşı Camii, Taşhan, Alaca Han and Vakıf Han, it forms an ensemble reflecting the city's commercial fabric in the Ottoman period. Ending a walk through the Kemeraltı streets at the bedesten is a practical option for those wanting to buy souvenirs from Trabzon. Opening and closing hours may vary by season.
