Among the valuable buildings of Kermanshah, its old bazaar is more than 150 years old. This market still maintains its dynamism and plays an important role in the economy of Kermanshah and its neighboring cities.

In the recent past, in addition to trade, some of the production and industrial activities have been carried out in this market, but over time, the number of producers, who were mostly artisans, has decreased, and as a result, the share of production in the market became very limited.

Among the main production centers, we can mention the market of blacksmiths, saddle makers, the line of binders, and the line of gun makers in Timcheh Seyyed Ismail. Today, the manufacturing sector is limited to the blacksmiths' market, the bakers' market, and a small part of the goldsmiths' market.
