Piri Reis' Shop was a trading post in Constantinople during the Renaissance. It was located within the Grand Bazaar in the Imperial District of the city.
History
The shop was owned and managed by Piri Reis, an Ottoman admiral, geographer, cartographer, and covert member of the Turkish Assassins. Piri's experience provided his brothers with vast knowledge of bomb-crafting, as well as ingredients required for the bombs.
When Ezio Auditore arrived in Constantinople during his search for the Masyaf Keys during the early 16th century, he visited Piri's shop on the advice of the local Assassin leader, Yusuf Tazim. Ezio inquired about Piri's special bombs, in usage of which he was instructed.
Apart from supplying the bomb components, the shop served a function similar to an Assassin Den, having a bomb-crafting station and a map which Ezio could use to manage the Assassin recruits.
