I walked from the Ramada Hotel to the Osh Bazaar on Tuesday, October 15. It took me 28 minutes. The Bazaar is a sprawling entity with many alleys, smells, and goods for sale. Very few of the vendors took credit cards which meant I was not able to purchase much. I should have thought about that ahead of time. Many of the vendors sold a lot of the same things (spices, candy, nuts, etc. clothing, shoes, scarves, school supplies) but I did not find many vendors who sold Kyrgyz souvenirs. Regardless, it was a rich experience to wander through the many alleys of the Bazaar. I especially loved the smells of the produce area. I was so impressed with the hard work of the vendors, as well.

The souvenirs sold here are much cheaper than Tsum Center (Floor 3). The bazaar is a bit of a maze, but for souvenirs, head to the building called "Kyial" National association of folk art crafts on Google map Take note this is a bazaar with all kinds of things, including daily provisions for locals. You can spend hours here, indoors and outdoors

1st visit of Bishkek city is to Osh Bazaar , it’s a huge bazaar , different section for fruits & vegetables, nuts , grocery etc . You can bargain here with using app translate to Russian language . We bought some fresh strawberries 🍓 and dried nuts from here

Really the best place to buy souvenir and local handmade stuff. The prices are really good and the shop keepers are nice try the price are mostly good but can get a 100-300 c discount. But I believe in supporting small shop owners so I loved the place and shopped a lot

This is a sprawling market with anything and everything. You want army fatigues? No problem. A plumbing fixture? Right this way. Spices, fresh meat, eggs, textiles, knock off designer brands? check, check, and check. I bought some souvenirs with the help of our guide, but there really is not a lot to see here. If you go, keep personal effects close. As of Oct 2024 the word is that this place will be moved to a new location in late 2025.

Just another normal market selling spices, sweets, dry fruits, local bread, souvenirs etc. The place was not crowded as we went in the morning. Getting car parking within the area is a bit of a challenge.
