Bedesten

One of the most distinctive buildings in the bazaar district of Trabzon is Bidestine, a 16th-century covered market hall, and although it has heavy octagonal upper parts, you might imagine it was designed as a temple or church, it is a very popular market building. . Inside, the mundane souvenir shops on the ground floor are disappointing at first, but you'll thank yourself for persevering in getting the most precious gift items, and then finish off your trip by going up to the unique upstairs café.
