Tajrish district in north Tehran is one of the famous neighborhoods in the capital. It has the two squares namely Tajrish and Qods. Between the two, there is a traditional roofed bazaar, known as Tajrish Bazaar.
The bazaar, about 300 meters long, has 400 shops selling assorted goods including apparel, fruits, nuts, food, handicrafts, jewelry, ornaments, tableware and many other items normally not easy to find elsewhere.
Dating back 70 years ago, the bazaar is an ideal place to find ingredients for Iranian cuisine. When it comes to classic Iranian shopping experience, browsing the food stalls at this photogenic bazaar in upmarket Tajrish pretty much nails it, says a review on Lonelyplanet.com.
