Thanks to the country’s location and large expatriate population there are many fabric shops throughout the country selling fabric of every type and colour that you could possibly imagine; so, whether you are after Korean or Thai silk, Indian or Egyptian cottons or French jacard you will find it all here. There are also numerous haberdashery shops selling items from buttons to sequins, feather and silk flowers. It is worth spending a little time visiting a few different shops before you buy, to compare prices. Negotiation is expected.
