Bring a reusable bag

Wear closed-toe shoes
A crowded market means carts, uneven pavement, and quick direction changes—comfortable, protective shoes make the stroll more pleasant.
Ask before photographing
Vendors often appreciate a quick request before photographing their goods or workspace—it's respectful and can lead to better shots.
