Persian Bazaar

An important part of all ancient cities of Iran is Bazaar. Persian bazaar acts like the spinal column of the city. It is not just a place to do daily shopping. Persian Bazaar holds many events inside of it, and that is the most important difference between traditional Persian bazaars and mall centers.

Structure of Persian bazaars is like a big root. It is like that this place is woven to the city. You can say exactly where the Bazaar starts but you can not say for sure where is the end of it.

Those who work in Persian bazaar are called Bazaari. Bazaaries always have been in the wealthy rank. Even no a days! It doesn’t   matter how much technology the mall centers have, Iranian bazaar has always been crowded and alive! A huge reason for it is the architecture of it.
