Verified traveler

A bit dangerous for pick pockets

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

Overwhelming. Go with someone who's from Ethiopia. The Merkato is massive and difficult to navigate without someone who understands it.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

It's huge. Find someone who can show you what you want, otherwise you will be wading through streets and alleys full of cheap western-style clothing, shoes and textiles. Some good finds to be had though.
