Souq Omdurman is the largest and most atmospheric market in greater Khartoum, a sprawling maze of stalls selling spices, textiles, leather sandals, hand-woven baskets, pottery and Sudan's well-known traditional silver jewelry. Browsing and soaking up the bustle costs nothing, and small souvenirs can be had for just a few dollars. Bargaining is expected and part of the fun.
