The Grand Bazaar in Istanbul you can find in the historical central European part of Istanbul, not too far from the Egyptian Bazaar and the Eminonu ferry boat station.
Sometimes tourists mixed the Grand Bazaar with the Egyptian Bazaar. However, this is two different places, that are not in the same area.
An entrance to the Egyptian Bazaar is just in front of The New Mosque (Yeni Cami), on the Eminonu station. But, the Grand Bazaar is a little bit far.

You can take a tramway T1 to the Beyazit-Kapalicharsi station from Eminonu to get to the Grand Bazaar. It will take about 5-7 minutes.
The Grand Bazaar in Istanbul is one of the oldest and one of the biggest bazaar that was opened in 1894. Nowadays, it comprises about 4000 shops with different kind of goods.
Inside the Grand Bazaar there are four fountains with a drinking water.
Strolling throgh the Grand Bazaar you should be very careful with your wallet. It is very crowded place and a lot of professional pickpockets are working there.
Also, you must bargain before buying something. Its a traditional "game" and absolutely necessary if you don`t want to pay 3 times more then it costs. )
