Stock up on all your fresh produce at this truly local market that runs through the alleyways off Midan Sho'ala. You'll find everything here from plastic-fantastic houseware to clucking chickens piled high in boxes. Traditional cobblers and metalworkers, and local dates by the barrelful, sit between stalls selling bawdy, cheap clothing and chintzy-tat.
It's brilliant and there's not a singing toy camel or pyramid snow-globe in sight. Come in the evening when half of Al Kharga seems to be here shopping.
