    • Rukayyah S. ★★★★★ When it's comes to textiles of all kinds you find it here at a very affordable and company price
    • Sadiq D. ★★★★★ The Kantin Kwari Market is one of the oldest and most international markets in the city of Kano in the Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria . This market was established in 1934. The name of this market comes from a valley called Kwarin Gogau. There are still some remnants of this valley in Fagge. This Fagge Neighborhood is located across from this North Market. Only a road separates this market from this Neighborhood. And almost now they can be said to have merged into one. Because if you cross from this market, the first line of Fagge Neighborhood from the South is Kasuwar Kantin Kwari, if you cross the road; that is, the North of Fagge Neighborhood, All are shops. For example, if you take from the Plaza Cinema and run North to the Singa Road junction, all are shops. Alhaji Alasan Dantata, and Mamman Goda were among the first people to set up stalls in this market. Later the Kwara came and then the Arabs. There are still Kwaras in this market. If you go into 'Unity Road' in the market, almost all the stalls are Kwaras and their houses combined. Because they were foreigners, they used to build a ground floor, the market ground floor, and a house for their families upstairs. And this system still exists. This Kantin Kwari market is one of the largest markets in Kano, there is a lot of wealth in this market. It is full of clothes.
