Ali Pasha Bazaar, Ottoman bazaar in Edirne, Turkey

The bazaar stretches 270 meters with arched ceilings, featuring 130 shops arranged along both sides of a central shopping street illuminated by windows.

Mimar Sinan constructed the bazaar between 1568 and 1569 under the direction of Grand Vizier Hersekzade Semiz Ali Pasha during Sultan Suleiman's reign.

The marketplace maintains traditional Turkish commerce practices where merchants sell clothing, footwear, household items, and local handicrafts to residents and visitors.

Visitors can enter through six different gates connecting to Saraçlar Street, Osmaniye Street, and Talat Paşa Street in the center of Edirne.

The bazaar specializes in regional products including decorative fruit-shaped soaps and small brooms with mirrors that represent local customs and traditions.
