You can still experience some of it at the Kara-Suu Bazaar, though. It's only about a 15-minute taxi ride away.

The new market is just a new market. Nothing more.

But what about that authentic Eastern atmosphere? The narrow alleyways, the handcart pushers shouting "Jol! Jol!" ("Make way!"), the little cafés, the spices, and all the rest... ☹️

To be honest, that was the very first place I wanted to visit in Osh.

Has anyone been to the new market? Does it still have any atmosphere? Or is it all neat, orderly, and sadly European-style now?
