There are about 400 shops here, all world-famous jewelry manufacturers present their goods every year.

3. Gold is sold by weight, which makes it possible to buy jewelry from famous designers at incredibly low prices. At first glance, prices do not seem democratic, but the final purchase price depends on the customers themselves - as in any oriental bazaar, it is customary to bargain here. Sometimes the cost of jewelry ends up being 30-40% less than the declared one. Therefore, the prices on the Gold Market are considered the lowest in the world.

Therefore, it is better to give preference to reputable proven brands. In addition, it is worth making purchases during the first hour of day trading: according to the rule, the earlier the first purchase is made, the better the daily earnings will be. Therefore, in the morning you can find the best deals.
