I could've wandered round the Grand Bazaar all day, but the store I most wanted to visit was Abdulla.
About a year ago I bought a cotton hamam towel from Toast to take swimming, as I thought it would be lighter and less bulky than a regular terry toweling bath sheet. I'm a complete convert. Abdulla had a great selection which made it difficult to make a choice. After a considerable amount of time pulling them all from the shelves, I settled on two of these ultra soft cotton bath towels with a grey and white border.
And the icing on the cake? The string bag which they came in once they'd been carefully wrapped in brown paper (looking a little crumpled here after the flight home)...

Yes, it is a really lovely place and not at all touristy like many of the stores in the Grand Bazaar. The string bags made us so happy!!
