However you spell it, souk, suk or suq, shopping at the markets in the Old City is an experience. In the top picture, Samuel and Steven peruse paintings for sale in the Jewish quarter As often happens in this old city, there was an archeological site in the midst of all the artwork. We took a look at that too. In the middle photo, we are in the Muslim quarter. A mix of religious items, jewelry, spices, sweets and clothing are for sale, all tightly packed in shallow storefronts. You have to ask for the prices, and be ready to haggle.
