Continuing our journey to learn something new, our next stop is the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul Turkey. It all began in the year 1455 when Mehmet the Conqueror, the Ottoman Empire’s visionary leader, decided to establish a center of trade in the heart of the city.
Today the Grand Bazaar or as known to locals as the Kapalıçarşı is one of the world’s most famous shopping destinations. Its 30,700 square meters (330,452 square feet) covered retail mecca is a wonder to get lost it.
Inside the Bazaar’s 64 streets and smaller alleyways are roughly 4,000 stores, a mosque, post office, cafes, banks, delicious spices from the orient galore, local foods, and even a police station. You might call it a mini or maybe even better a mega city mall plus.
As a tour guide correctly wrote, the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul is a living testament to the city’s rich history and vibrant culture. It is a place you can shop for exquisite treasures, indulge in delectable flavors, and immerse yourself in the traditions of the past.
A special life-long friend who arranged for me to experience this special place once again is what inspired this summary. Retail has so many exciting places in the world where culture and humanity come together in an explosion of all your senses. Traveling back to Istanbul of what a great feeling it is to step away from your comfort zone, focus on the probabilities, vanquish the impossible, and create immersive experiences of a lifetime.
