Towels

A bit dull as subjects go, but are towels still a good buy in Turkey? If so are there any recommendations of places to go - hopefully  somewhere with lots of choice as we are looking for specific colours/combinations.

Thanks!

We usually buy ours at the Tuesday market, there is a guy on the left hand side of the market that sells bath sheets at 10ytl upwards, great quality and hard waring ,had some for over 5years and as good as new. Also bought some in May, and wanted to get some hand towels to match and found them in TK Max in the UK but wanted £16.99 each, so didn't bother,

First shop we stopped at were asking 55tl - just further down the road ( Main Street down to prom) were two for 40tl but be careful to get both same size.

There's a guy on Sunday market (he may even be the same one as referred to on Tuesday market) has Next overmakes in all colours that he buys from the factory in Denizli. He used to always have the flag of a Dutch team, Ajax(?) on the side of his van.

Alternatively, on LHS just before the Sundial junction off the main road to Ovacik, there's a large shop, name escapes me, but there's always a large selection of mainly garden type soft furnishings outside

This one, Liz?

I recommend Detay as well for towels.





You better hurry up though, Scunner. Seems he only has the one.

That's the one Menthol.

Scunner, you could go that way, but it's a heck of a hike. It's past the plastic cow & probably about 2/3 of the way to the lights where you go left to Saturday market or bare right to Ovacik

Thanks Liz - I have trouble working out the severity of walking to places over there (mainly as I drove all the time when we lived there).

I once walked from the water taxi stop in Fethiye to the Yakamoz, I couldn't believe it wasn't 5 minutes away :D

You'd have to walk further to find the Yakamoz these days   ;)
