The old bazaar of Kashan is an old living thing. It is historical and up-to-date at the same time. There are lots of souvenir shops from Persian carpet shop to hand-made pottery and other shops. You can not only buy souvenirs but also can walk and watch the art of Persian masons. The great old bazaar of Kashan is the best place to capture pictures for your Instagram.
