Not clean, lot of congestion, prices not low and many outlets cheat foreign tourists. Better not to go there. Instead buy goods in other places. Carpet market is big but you must be skilful to deal with them. In Iran carpets are mission-made but prices are higher than handicrafts. Moreover they confuse you with currency exchange rates. They dont use Arabic numerals. It all looks like dirty fish market.

Very very great and beautiful , It is a huge place and people are confused about where they came from and where they are going, there are many people for shopping, some places are entirely wholesale sellers, it is very crowded, but it has a very beautiful structure in terms of architecture.

It is a very old and big bazaar. Contrary to what it should be, it's not clean at all. But there are lots of shops selling different things inside.when you walk in this Bazaar you can see how people work.I think this place is still a trade center not a touristic attraction.

It is very very VERY crowded. If you are tourist, probably you will not like it because of the crowd. If you want to buy stuff at a reasonable price then it is your place to go.

Like all bazaars it’s always super interesting

A must for anyone visiting Tehran! It’s super crowded! There’s nothing that you can’t find there! Anything you wish there’s a market for it

Quite similar to other bazaars in Iran, this is nevertheless a special place to visit
The bazaar is a typical bazaar, with rugs, spices, gems, a myriad of things, and the hustle and bustle of people. If you enjoy bazaars you will enjoy this place

anyone coming to visit Tehran, needs to visit the grand Bazar. It is a mood. It is fascinating. all that movement. Streets divided to areas for each specific object.

Some of the halls look like palace rooms. It was really crowded when I visited it, but the vibes of this place were amazing. It felt like an immersion in an eastern fairytale.

Speaking of Grand Bazaars - the very first that comes to mind is Istanbul, Turkey. The Iranian version of the Grand Bazaar is by no way any lesser or leaves anything to be desired. The sheer variety of fabrics, garments, shoes, bags and every restaurants inside the Bazaar can be a dizzying experience for a first timer. Best time to visit is before 10 am and after 5 pm if one meant like crowds. But then, the essence of this historic Bazaar would be missed.

It is always crowded but I like to go there and discover the beauty of its architecture and vivid sounds of life, it is also near Qajar historical sites so one day self guided tour in this area is a must for me everytime I visit Iran:)

Highest quality spices and saffron at really good prices.

Beware of the fast moving human powered carts hauling goods, they stop for no one.

It's a memorable bazaar experience, nothing touristy and does not feel contrived.
