Shopping em Mecca

The streets of Mecca are full of small shops and bazaars that sell all sorts of items, from food and clothes to prayer mats and copies of the Quran. These stalls can be very interesting from a cultural perspective, and also cheap if you are good at bargaining. If the loud and crowded street bazaars are not your thing, however, Mecca has a lot of air-conditioned malls where you can find all the goods you're looking for, as well as restaurants and cafes to rest and relax between the shopping sessions.
