Alles über Ferikoy Antique bazaar

Was Sie erwartet

The bazaar is located in Şişli’s Feriköy neighborhood, close to Bomonti. It operates every Sunday from early morning until late afternoon. Entrance is free, and the market is fully organized with fixed stalls. You’ll also find small cafés, snack stands, and shaded seating areas. Prices vary — some items are affordable, while others are high-value antiques.

Warum diese Tour buchen

Bring cash, as many sellers do not accept cards. Bargaining is common, but do it politely. The market can get busy around midday, so keep an eye on your belongings. If you enjoy photography, ask permission before taking close-up shots of items or sellers. Since many pieces are delicate or vintage, handle them carefully when browsing.

Feriköy Antique Bazaar is easy to reach from central Istanbul. The nearest metro stop is Osmanbey (M2 line) — from there, it’s about a 10–15 minute walk.
