Antique Markets
There are two antique markets in the suburbs of Baku.
The first is in the Sabunchu district, known as the "market for the poor." It operates only on weekends from nine to four and attracts visitors with its low prices.
The second market is located near Icheri Sheher. The items resemble those from Eastern fairy tales: vintage carpets, silk scarves, coins, jewelry, dishes, and much more. However, prices here are higher. The Icheri Sheher market caters to tourists and enchants with its charm and atmosphere. It’s best to bring cash, as not all vendors accept cards or have ATMs.

"Meyvəli Bazar" is a wholesale and retail market for fruits and vegetables located near the "Sadarak" shopping center. It was created for the efficient delivery of agricultural products from local farmers to the market. Prices here are lower than in stores or other bazaars, making it a great place to buy local fruits and vegetables in bulk at low prices.
