Sobre esta Tip
The H-9 weekly bazaar, known as the Sunday market, is one of Islamabad's big open-air markets, with fruit, vegetables, clothing, kitchenware, second-hand books and furniture. Since November 2025 stalls accept digital payments, with discounts for shoppers who pay that way, though cash still works. Go early on a Sunday, bargain on non-food goods and carry small notes for stalls without digital payment.
