Buy a Souvenir That Will Last a Lifetime – Art!

I won’t lie… we were sucked in. In the Old Quarter you will see many galleries packed to the brim with stacks of paintings. For the  most part, they are all reproductions, but this is why the price is so reasonable. If you find a piece you love, they’ll take it off the frame, roll it up and place it in a tube for shipping. All in all, our 5ft by 4ft painting cost $150 USD for the piece and $70 to ship. Perhaps we could have bargained more on the piece, but we were in love. Look at the skill that goes into them and be reasonable when you haggle.
