Shuk Ha Carmel - simply called Carmel Market in English - is an outside market with lots of fresh fish, spices, and fruit.
The market can be described by one word in Hebrew: "balagan." Balagan can be best translated to mean chaos. Balagan is embraced in Israeli society and can be best seen when traveling through the markets. It is an integral part of the culture and community and you can better understand the people by seeing the shuk. Shuk is Hebrew for market.

Make sure to bring sturdy shoes as the market is crowded and busy with families haggling and shop vendors pushing their fresh foods on market-goers.
Bring loose change as credit cards are not an appropriate method for purchasing items. I mentioned before it is chaotic, which is not a bad thing, but it is important to understand that it is part of the culture and this type of energy is often embraced and welcomed by Israelis so it is nothing to be turned off by or looked down on.
