Egypt Markets

In nearly all districts of Egypt, local markets are located away from tourist bazaars such as Khan El Khalili in Cairo and Luxor, Aswan, Sharm el Sheik, and Hurghada tourist bazaars. Local markets are available. These local markets are interesting places for the purchase of fruits, vegetables, and cotton products at very low prices.
The Tawfikeya Market, for example, is in downtown Cairo, close to 26 July Street. The shops and street suppliers in the area open until the early morning hours and almost all are sold. The Friday market held near the citadel on Friday, Friday afternoon, and Friday prayer are other interesting examples.
For second-hand goods, animals, birds, and many other products from all over Cairo and from all areas of Egypt, the Friday market is indicated.
There's another example in Alexandria of a remarkable local market named "Attarine," where all sorts of antiques are sold in a labyrinth of narrow streets and alleys.
El Arish, located in northern Sinai, has a wonderful weekly market every Thursday when many Bedouins from across Sinai visit the market and present their handmade products.
Shisha is certainly one of Egypt's best products to buy. Every coffee house has an installation. A beautiful Egyptian traditional waterpipe would also make a great gift. The shisha is special tobacco packed with steel or brass fittings in a clay pot. The chess and backgammon sets are other great things. These sets can vary with the cheaper ones crudely produced and contain few if any, inlays.
The best sets of chess or backgammon are made of the best hardwoods from Egypt and are decorated with wonderful mother-of-pearl designs, bones, ivory, and many more.
Also, great shopping is sandals, bags, and shoes. In numerous Egyptian tourist markets, such as Khan El Khalili or the markets of Luxor, Aswan, and Sharm El Sheik, purely leather bags and sandals can be found.
Belly dancing equipment and accessories are also popular in Egypt. The belly dance robes would also make a marvelous gift to young and old, with their brilliant and colorful clothes and a wide variety of accessories.
