The Used-Book Bazaar is a bedesten—a traditional Ottoman covered market structure—located in the Fatih district of Istanbul, Turkey. Built in the Ottoman architectural style characteristic of such commercial halls, it functions as a bazaar specializing in used books, preserving a centuries-old tradition of enclosed marketplace design where vendors and customers gather beneath a permanent roof.
