The Copper Market, Souq al-Nahas, is one of the specialised markets of the Old City of Sana'a, near Souq al-Milh. At its centre is Samsarat al-Nahas, an old caravanserai where merchants once stored goods and stayed, which has been restored as a centre for craftsmen. The samsara has a courtyard surrounded by arcades of stone, with workshops and shops on its floors, and is one of the best places in the old city to see traditional crafts.
