A market with high-quality products and cheerful sellers. There are rows of fruits, vegetables, dried fruits, tortillas and other similar items under the dome in the open air. Closed shops are located around all this, where you can already find everything else - household goods, clothes, shoes, cosmetics, household chemicals, products that should be stored in the refrigerator, and even pharmacies and cafes.
Prices for fruits and vegetables are slightly higher than in most other bazaars. Perhaps because of the location in an area with expensive apartments.
But for products such as cheese, chocolate, corn, peas and mayonnaise in the shops that go around the perimeter, you can even find wholesale prices.
In short, it's a good market.We really like the special cottage cheese, there is no place to find such delicious cottage cheese and kaymak.We make a bazaar every Saturday only from here.We recommend a cool bazaar to everyone.

The Alai Market in Tashkent is one of the largest and most famous places to buy fresh produce, spices, clothing and other goods. This is a place where you can find a wide range of local products and goods from different parts of Uzbekistan, as well as communicate with sellers, learn more about culture and traditions.
The advantages of the market are its variety and low prices for fresh products, especially fruits, vegetables, nuts and spices. It is also a great place to buy traditional Uzbek goods such as fabrics, carpets and souvenirs.
However, the market can be crowded, especially on weekends and holidays, which makes it difficult to get around and sometimes makes shopping inconvenient. The quality of service can also vary, and it is not always possible to negotiate a price. Some places are not very clean, and the sanitary conditions leave much to be desired.
In general, the Alai market is a great place for those who are looking for fresh produce and unique products at affordable prices, but you need to be prepared for a noisy and crowded atmosphere.

The market is purely tourist, among the advantages there are exotic fruits, a good dairy department, there is a selection of fish products, but I repeat, the market is mainly aimed at tourists or ignorant people who have not yet mastered alternative markets, the price equivalent is very high, I will compare even with mockups and it is cheaper to buy one or another product there.

Excellent location, in the center of Tashkent,5 minutes walk from Intercontinental Tashkent.The choice is not bad, but there are no price tags anywhere and seeing that you are not a local, they charge prices 3 times higher. They think that they will get rich from two hundred extra rubles🤣You can buy samsa and tortillas only in the morning, cafes and tea houses are a little antediluvian with tea from tap water, unsanitary conditions are visible to the naked eye, but this is not considered so by the locals. Lamb kebabs are hard to find.In general, the expectations were much higher

A huge selection of the freshest fruits. You definitely need to bargain. Prices for non-locals are said to be twice as high. Otherwise, everything is great. They will help you pack it even in a box, even in a basket. If you want to transport fruits by plane, you need to check in your luggage. New rules of transportation.

The central market. Cleaner than other bazaars, it has become smaller, much more expensive and tourist-oriented. Here you can buy good knives (I highly recommend going around first, finding out prices and haggling), they give you paper from the seller. Here, you can ask a knife dealer to invite a currency changer, exchange rubles for soums, the exchange rate is better than at an exchange point. In the pavilion, try the horse sausage "Kazy", in general, everything that you plan to buy or doubt the taste, you need to try! She's cool there.
I recommend eating fried lagman in a good dining room, not a bad shish kebab and most importantly sooooo delicious samsushki! They are sold nearby, but the locals buy up quickly, you need to make it to one o'clock in the afternoon, then there is a barn lock hanging there))). And all this is located on the left side, if you look at the central entrance of the market. You will go through the flower shops of a small shopping center, I do not remember what it was called and ... here it is, they are frying kebabs at this dining room!

Due to the fact that the market is located in the center and many hotels are located in the center, more tourists go. A cent is not cheap. But there are souvenirs for gifts, there are jewelry shops, there are branded watches. There is a basket that is convenient.

The market is more expensive than others, but it's quiet and not crowded. You can slowly buy everything you need from the market. There is a cafe at the market - the food is delicious! We tried lagman and manty and noted for ourselves that this market had the most delicious dinners and, by the way, the most delicious tea was served here.

The market has not been Dehkan for a long time. After the renovation, the Dehkan flavor and spirit of the bazaar, as well as the dehkans themselves, no longer remained. The prices are also far from Dehkan.Only resellers. The loot won over the good, as always.
For tourists and guests of the capital, it is an illustrative place, you can bring, show, even bargain a little, buy souvenirs, jewelry, eat local cuisine - there are several cafes on the edge of the market to feel the local flavor, nothing more. There is a market Basket inside the market, and a bunch of other small grocery and household stores. There are also several large clothing market on the outskirts, a couple of flower shops..Meat pavilion, dairy in a separate building..
Kamol's barbecue is still good!
In general, if you want a Dehkan flavor and more affordable prices, then you are not here, but closer to the outskirts, this is the city center with all the consequences..

The Alai market is a classic of the genre. Now it has changed a lot, and I remember it in the time of my childhood, when it was the best bazaar in Tashkent, there were also clothing stalls adjacent to the grocery store, where you could dress well. The products at the bazaar used to be gorgeous in quality. Tandoor samsa was also a finger licking. Now it's all there, too, but again everything has become different, there is no previous scope

Alai, that one word says a lot. 30 years ago, I think it was better. It's more comfortable. Now they've built it, updated it, grouped the rows, and it seems to me they've ruined it. They made it worse. There are a lot fewer sellers, and there are a lot fewer buyers. Somehow, the life of the bazaar stopped boiling. The Altai flavor is gone. Sorry

An overpriced decorative market.
Of the advantages, these are the rows at the back of the market, where you can find Asian shops, pork on the second floor of the store and fish of various types.
Of the disadvantages of the price, they are designed for visitors and not locals, and the fruit and vegetable market itself is overpriced with inadequate prices and stale goods.

As a child, I loved this bazaar very much.But now, everything has changed a lot.Tower prices bend like they're not normal!For whom, for what?So that the product dies?Or are they treated with chemicals?It's not clear.More expensive than in Moscow, Paris, Berlin. Or maybe they made toy fruits for the eyes for tourists?Riddle.
As soon as I go in, it's empty with customers.There are only sellers sitting. They miss me, they see me, and they yell at me. Do you need it???The Yunusabad market is clear, but they say it will be like the Alai market soon after the restoration.Oh, money, money is just money for everyone.

Alai Bazaar is not just a market. This is vanity Fair, where two fools come together in an unequal battle: one wants to skin three people, the other wants to save at least a shirt... And both leave with empty pockets and eyes full of regret.
The air here smells of spices, greed and eternal hope for a miracle.
Every seller is a shaman, every price tag is a dagger in the heart of common sense.
You can bargain until you're blue in the face, hoarse, until dawn — but in the end you'll still buy tomatoes for the price of gold bars.
Alai Bazaar is a place where time has stopped in the "purse upside down" position.
Even seasoned oriental merchants, who have seen the sights, wipe the sweat from their foreheads and quietly whisper "Inshallah" before asking the price of a bunch of cilantro.
Remember: they don't bargain for a discount in Alai. They are bidding for the right to leave with at least a piece of self-respect.
The verdict:
If you want to feel like a hero of an oriental fairy tale about lost gold, go here.
But give up hope, O everyone who enters:
your wallet will go away easier than a camel's shadow in the midday heat.
