The Old Quarter is not the same Old Quarter any more. They did open shops and restaurants in almost all the buildings. And most of them sell the same. No wonder they do not have to many customers. So if you are the shopkeeper or work in one of the shops you do one thing…
The best time of the day to visit the Old Quarter is late afternoon. Make sure to pass by the wet market and look for a spot to sit for a while. Selling and shopping is still done like 20 years ago. On the floor or at stalls along the road or under the tin…
