Archaeology handicrafts and science and technology sites to visit Keren

Keren is known for its markets and wandering in the for a afternoon is a good way to immerse itself with the atmosphere of the city. Just behind the Keren Hotel is a covered market where you sell fuits and vegetables; and just behind it begins a series of small, beaten alleys that are the of the city. A whole aisle is dedicated to gold and silver sellers, and then several aisles see themselves with vendors of fabrics and tailors; the latter, sitting behind their sewing machine, are waiting peacefully for the next hem to be made. A little further, small aisles lead to another covered market: this time, it is the grain market, where many cereal varieties are piled together alongside others in large canvas bags. Right on the right is the wicker market, and there are also a few shops selling basketry and pottery.
