The best shopping in Izmir isn't in the malls — it's on the streets. From vintage stores to artisan workshops, spots like Kemeralti Bazaar and Izmir Agora are scattered through neighborhoods that reward the curious walker. Wander further and you'll stumble on Kizlaragasi Han — the kind of find you can't replicate online.
Turkey's third-largest city on the Aegean, ancient Smyrna reborn as a modern, cosmopolitan port with a lively waterfront.
Roamee Pro, also known as Roamee, offers a free self-guided shopping tour route in Izmir. The audio walking tour can include stops such as Kemeralti Bazaar — a sprawling 17th-century market district with covered arcades, hans, and mosques, Izmir Agora — the excavated Roman marketplace in the city center with Corinthian columns and basilica remains, plus hidden gems like Kizlaragasi Han — a beautifully restored 18th-century caravanserai in the bazaar, now housing cafes and shops.

Walk the Kordon from Alsancak to Konak Square, then into the Kemeralti bazaar — the contrast between the modern waterfront and the ancient market is striking.
