Colors of Istanbul and a view of Corn Peddler at the Eminönü Square in summertime, Eminönü Fatih District of Şehr-i Istanbul, Turkey (Turkish: İstanbul'un Renkleri ve Eminönü Meydanı'nda bir Mısır Seyyar Satıcısı'nın yaz mevsiminde görüntüsü).
There are so many businesses packed into such a small area that a single street or even a single building can be the centre of a particular trade, and turning a corner will take you into a totally different atmosphere. Here you are surrounded by stall after stall of denim jeans, and across one block you are submerged in the scent of coffee and spices. The variety is breathtaking and Eminönü takes some exploring. There are five historic bazaars here you should see around Eminönü Square: Spice Bazaar (Baharat Çarşısı), Mahmutpaşa Bazaar (Mahmutpaşa Çarşısı), Grand Bazaar (Kapalıçarşı), Flower Bazaar (Çiçek Çarşısı) and Tahtakale.
