The Grand Bazaar in Istanbul is one of the oldest and largest covered markets in the world, with 61 streets and over 4,000 shops covering 330,000 square feet or about the area of 6 football fields.  Between 250,000 and 400,000 people visit it daily.  This may make it first among the world's most-visited tourist attractions, with about 91 million annual visitors.  The Grand Bazaar is also reputed to be the location of portals that can transport people around the world.  But despite the rumors, one fact is incontrovertible: in 1591 thieves stole 30,000 gold coins in one of the most surprising thefts in the history of Istanbul.
