From Passprt Community
- Go early around 8-9 am when vendors are fresh, crowds are low, and you often get friendlier prices via bargaining.
- Bargaining is expected so start at half or one‑quarter of the asking price and stop when it feels fair and you still smile.
- Expect many stalls to sell similar mass‑made items so venture into small alleys for stalls that feel a bit more authentic.
- Beat the midday heat by visiting early or later in the afternoon when it cools and the market feels more relaxed.
- For betterhandicraft quality go to curated shops nearby rather than the main market unless you spot real artisan pieces.
- Stay hydrated and take short breaks in nearby cafés if you feel overwhelmed by the heat or the bustling vibe.
