Word has it that there are water canals underneath the Bazaar built by the Byzantines. It's believed that they used it to run away from the enemies in times of war. It's been told that the canals are so tiny that one has to bend over even to be able to travel with a small boat.

I probably would never have the chance to find out if it's true. Nevertheless the mystery underneath is no more than what the streets of the Bazaar has to offer. Each street is like a gateway to a different world. It's very easy to get lost for a first time visitor, yet a local of the Bazaar walks by heart without even giving a second thought as to which street to take to arrive his final destination.
