Balogun Ajeniya Market is one of the biggest open markets in Nigeria and West Africa at large. It is an ideal place to shop for varieties of textiles, clothing, shoes, and related wears. Balogun market is located on Balogun Street, off Broad Street, Lagos Island.

When visiting the market, it is best to go with a local because it can be a little overwhelming if you don't know your way around.

A pro tip: Always bargain and never accept the first price.
