History

The revival of historical bazaar centers such as Haj Saleh Hammam, Domenareh Mosque and caravanserais and the construction of a historical museum are being studied and carried out. [4] [5] [6]

The structure of the Bazzar

This bazaar consists of two main parts between the Castle bazaar and Sarpacheh bazaar, which are separated by the covered river Vali Khan (now Fakhr Razi Street). Saqqez Bazzar consists of several smaller Bazaars that are divided according to the goods offered and the sellers. These markets include the "Bazzar of Bala", which sells luxury goods, and the "Bazzar of Paein", which sells traditional goods such as textiles, wedding accessories and agricultural items. There are other markets, such as the Jewish market, which is now home to tailors and clothing manufacturers, and the Kazakhkhaneh market, which is now widely visited by travelers. [7] [8] [9]
