Lots of shops. Cheap cell phone plan, which I ended up buying for an unlocked cell phone, data and minutes are good for travel across EU, and minutes are only counted towards outgoing calls, incomingOkumaya devam et

Market only Sundays 10am-5pm.
Update- closes at 4pm, found out when got there at 4:10 :( From the looks of it, it is a huge flea market. Might be a good Sunday outing, walking distance (~30 minutes)Okumaya devam et
