With a large flea market on weekends Izmaylovo flea market is the one to go for your Soviet kitsch souvenirs and a little bit of everything else. It's huge and rambling, filled with Russia's best and worst salespeople. Here you'll find matryoshki, the laquer boxes, carpets, Soviet posters, badges, tea towels and so on. Bargain hard and be friendly, some of your encounters here have the potential to be the most memorable. Follow the crowds from the Partizanskaya metro station towards the kitsch Russian village.
