Unveiling Khoy City's Ancient Market: A Hidden Gem in Iran

#historical_market of City Khoy
Bazar #khoy is an old and large market in #West_azarbaijan which was left over from the Safavid era and was one of the prosperous commercial #centers of the country during that time. Since #Azerbaijan is located on important roads such as Mecca Road, Silk Road, access road to Jolfa, etc., this market has been of special importance in the past. Khoi market is located in the eastern side of Khoy city and with more than 300 years old, it is still thriving and is known as one of the traditional markets of Iran.
This market has a rectangular plan and consists of many rows, quadrangles and houses, and it is considered one of the most beautiful historical markets in Iran. Although some parts of Khoy market have been encroached upon over time, what remains is the unique architecture of that era.
This market is located in the old part of the city and according to many historians and #travelers it is one of the most #beautiful markets in Iran.
Introduction of market mood
To visit this old market, which is considered one of the must-see places in Khoy city, you should look for it on the southeast side of the central intersection, in line with Taleghani and Neghlab streets.
Due to its location on the famous Silk Road, Makkah Yuli, the Trabuzan-Jolfa road, etc., in the past, Khoy had many caravanserais for the unloading of goods and rest for merchants, and a wide market for the trading of various goods. Bazar Khoy, which remains today, is the remnant of a larger market that was on the eastern side and connected to the wall of the entrance gate of the city.
Initially, the Khoy market consisted of only a few covered rows, a few houses, several squares and ancient passages, and many parts of the rows and caravanserais were added later.
Although this market was damaged several times due to earthquake and twice due to fire, once during the Qajar period and another in 1339, but it has been restored and has preserved its original form in terms of architecture and economy. Bazar Khoy is still one of the important commercial centers for the export of carpets, wool and dry goods inside and outside the country.
Bazar Khoy was registered as one of the national works of Iran in June 1366 AH. If you are interested in visiting historical buildings, in the south of this old bazaar you can see caravanserais, historical mosques of Molhassan, Haj Baba and Hajjatiyeh, Hammam Mohammad Bey and a stone gate with its eye-catching architecture.
