Fodor's Expert Review Manshiya Market

The Manshiya Market, which is also known as the "Downtown" or "old city" market, is basically a flea market near the Attarine Market. Here, clothing, textiles, spices, and jewelry are sold in the streets west of Maydan Orabi. Perhaps the most visually interesting market in Alexandria is the produce section of the market, which begins near the Raml Tram Station and runs west for a mile.
