- 5 Reviews
The Niamey Grand Market, Niger's largest market, is located in central Niamey, near key landmarks like Stade Général Seyni Kountché and the Grande Mosquée. First constructed in 1950, it was rebuilt after a 1982 fire and now includes over 4,000 shops, from temporary stalls to permanent stores. It serves as a major hub for local and international trade, attracting around 20,000 tourists annually for its crafts and goods. Fires in 1982 and 2009 caused significant damage, but the market remains a vital commercial and cultural center.

Great experience witnessing where locals shop. There aren't much "tourist items" being but rather actual stuff that people need on a day to day basis. It was fun just walking around seeing everything that was being sold. It felt very safe and I was never hassled. People seem to appreciate you seeing this aspect of their lives.
