Istanbul. September, 2014


Talk about a niche market! We were amazed at how segregated certain stores are in Istanbul. This photo is from what we called the belt-buckle neighborhood. As we climbed the hill to the Suleymaniye Mosque, we saw some two dozen stores selling nothing but these items. Right next door to one another. A similar phenomenon occurred when we came across the plexiglas neighborhood.
