SHOPPING

Visitors to the  city usually like to visit the old shops in Cikrikcilar Yokusu near Ulus. The street of copperworkers (Bakircilar Carsisi) is particularly popular, and many interesting old and new items, not just of copper, can be found here, such as jewellery, carpets, costumes, antiques and embroidery.		Walking up the hill to the  Citadel Gate, you will find many interesting shops selling spices, dried fruits, nuts, and all manner of produce; the selection is huge and very fresh.  Modern shopping areas are mostly found in Kizilay, on Tunali Hilmi Avenue, including the modern mall Karum, and in the Atakule Tower in Cankaya.
	From the top of Atakule (125 meters) there is a magnificent view of the whole city. There is also an excellent revolving restaurant where the complete panorama can be enjoyed in a more leisurely fashion.
