 store / shop, marketplace

A Qaysari bazaar is a type of covered bazaar typical of Kurdistan and Iraq, located just south of the citadel in the center of town. The Qaysari is entered through numerous alleys surrounding the Qaysari. Once inside, shoppers walk through a maze of narrow paths between the shops, underneath a roof of corrugated metal. Most alleys feature a unique product that is sold by a majority of the vendors in that location. The northeast corner of the Qaysari contains a north-south alley offering honey and dairy products, such as youghurt and cheeses.
