I went to the Russian Market - so called because that's where the Russians used to shop in the good old days of the Cold War etc.
It had the normal tourist stuff that I've come to expect: wooden and stone statues of Buddha, t-shirts, silk products, dubious quality 'art' etc. I actually bought a couple of t-shirts, but having tried them on back at my hotel I think they won't get worn much as they are a bit on the tight size (I was advised to get a medium).
At the market I was more interested in the wet market area which all kinds of butchery and fish mongery going on. Environmental health inspectors in the UK would go mad!
