MESALE CAFE RESTAURANT N ARASTA BAZAAR

Pls click here for previous post. 

If u happen to be in Sultanahmet and want to watch Turkish sufi whirling dance for free, u can dine at Mesale Cafe Restaurant in Sultanahmet. Very near to Arasta Bazaar.  Food is good. Prices are affordable but to me, it's a little bit pricey for my budget. But, u can watch the dance and traditional music performance for free while dining in. The show was not long, about 15 minutes per session.  I guess the simple version, not like the one  u pay, it is longer and they have like some kind of story line. Oklah kan...janji dapat tngk...hehehe...

The sufi dance

On our way back from dinner, we walked pass  Arasta bazaar. Bazaar ni tutup lambat, pukul 9 lbh masih ada kedai yang buka. Actually harga kat sini, x lah mahal sangat, rasanya lebih murah dari Grand Bazaar, cuma ia lebih kecil. Kedai2nya pon bersih.

The alley of shops at Arasta.
