Ontmoetingspunt
At 10:00 am we meet in front of the Spice Bazaar, also known as the Egyptian Market, which is located just across the street from the Galata bridge on the Old City side of the Golden Horn, along Ragip Gumuspala Caddesi. The Spice Bazaar (called Misir Carsisi in Turkish) is set back from the road and shares a piazza with a large mosque called Yeni Cami (Yeni mosque). We meet just to the right of the entrance to the Bazaar where there is also a little supermarket here with a red and blue sign saying "Itimat".
