Fatih (Unkapanı) – Istanbul Drapers Bazaar
Sited between Unkapanı and the Bozdoğan Kemeri (Valence Aqueduct) this bazaar was built in the 1960s. Developed and planned to meet the need of a new space for drapers and fabric wholesalers around Sultanhamam; this bazaar is one of the first modern architectural buildings of Istanbul and includes decorative elements from some of the foremost artists of the time. Today, besides being the center of upholstery fabric, curtain, wall paper and flooring material stores, it’s also an important center for music companies.
