The White Market

The White Market holds quite a few secrets within it. The best hummus, the finest fish restaurants, spice shops and vegetables that you cannot get anywhere else in town, are just a few examples. Merchants who carry with them not only the bargaining of yesteryear, but also stories of the elders of the city and the old city in general. The market was built on the remains of the street leading to the Hospitallers Gate north of the port area during the Crusader period. The entire area is undergoing a meticulous process in recent years of renovation and reconstruction, to make it a Mecca for tourists, aimed at making it even more popular than it is today.
