SHOPPING PLACES OF YEMEN

Alternative Venues for Bargaining and Buying

While most shopping in Yemen is centered in daily and weekly markets or souks, shopping also takes place in many other locations - from vehicles, along the road, from wheelbarrows, at hotel shops, in street shops, and from mobile hawkers.

In fact, what makes shopping so interesting in Yemen are the many shopping venues available for visitors. The photos in this section capture the various sources of shopping in Yemen.

While you should be prepared to encounter several different shopping venues in Yemen's many markets, keep an eye open for others outside the markets. The more mobile the venue, the more likely you'll be able to bargain.
