This puzzle is part 22 of Gladys' journey across the globe. Each part can be solved independently. Nevertheless, if you are new to the series, feel free to start at the beginning: Introducing Gladys.
Dear Puzzling,
Today I went to a marketplace. I quite like the atmosphere – there are a lot of people and plenty of exciting new things around every corner, even though it's not even the biggest market in town. I can't get too crazy with the shopping here, though. There is another flight ahead, and there's only so much room in my suitcase!
Wish you were here!
Love, Gladys.

I deserve none of the credit, because @Jay, @Rand, and @Stewie did all of the work. That said,
I think (based on @Jay’s completed crossword and subsequent Rubik’s cube shift) that if you take the green box only...
Gladys is at
Osh Bazaar in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan. Note that it is indeed not even the biggest market in Bishkek — that distinction belongs to Dordoy Bazaar, a market on par with some of the biggest in Asia.

Almost-complete crossword:
(There's a few clues I haven't managed to solve, but I've found all the coloured letters at least.)
Green letters:
S, A, A, O, H, B, Z, A, R. These letters form OH BAZAARS - she's shopping in a bazaar?
Blue letters:
I, A, N, A, G, A, N, T, S. These letters form TANS AGAIN - she's in a hot sunny place?
Yellow letters:
B, B, I, L, U, E, A, R, E. I see BLUE in there, maybe something about the sea?
Red letters:
A, N, O, O, L, A, S, C, E. These letters form OCEAN LAOS, which could be where she is?
My guess at her location:
a bazaar in Laos near the sea. Unfortunately, Laos is landlocked :-/

I used a lot of time on this, so I have to post the complete crossword:
Also, my English isn't that good, so solving crosswords is terribly hard.
Blue colors:
AGAIANNTS
ANGASTINA - Village in Crete
TANS AGAIN - Sunny place?
Anyway, a sunny place?
Green tiles:
SAAOHARBZ
There's Sahara in there, but that leaves "boz" or "Zob", and I don't know what that means. Also, "Bazars, Oh"
In Sahara, or on a Bazar. Likely the second one, since he's shopping.
Red tiles:
ANO OLA SCE:
OCEAN ALSO, Canoe Laos,
Yellow tiles:
BILUEAREB
There are Blue, bar,
In summary:
There's SAHARA, BLUE, OCEAN ALSO, TANS AGAIN. My guess is: He's in a place where the Sahara meets the Ocean. That's as far as I get at the moment.

Partial answer:
The completed crossword looks like this
By
Sliding a row to the left, and then sliding a column down, and ignoring grey squares,
we get this
I can see a few words in here but nothing complete.
As usual I have no idea where Gladys is.
Edit:
I have added a 3d view of the cube in case it helps.

Almost-complete crossword:
(There's a few clues I haven't managed to solve, but I've found all the coloured letters at least.)
Green letters:
S, A, A, O, H, B, Z, A, R. These letters form OH BAZAARS - she's shopping in a bazaar?
Blue letters:
I, A, N, A, G, A, N, T, S. These letters form TANS AGAIN - she's in a hot sunny place?
Yellow letters:
B, B, I, L, U, E, A, R, E. I see BLUE in there, maybe something about the sea?
Red letters:
A, N, O, O, L, A, S, C, E. These letters form OCEAN LAOS, which could be where she is?
My guess at her location:
a bazaar in Laos near the sea. Unfortunately, Laos is landlocked :-/

I used a lot of time on this, so I have to post the complete crossword:
Also, my English isn't that good, so solving crosswords is terribly hard.
Blue colors:
AGAIANNTS
ANGASTINA - Village in Crete
TANS AGAIN - Sunny place?
Anyway, a sunny place?
Green tiles:
SAAOHARBZ
There's Sahara in there, but that leaves "boz" or "Zob", and I don't know what that means. Also, "Bazars, Oh"
In Sahara, or on a Bazar. Likely the second one, since he's shopping.
Red tiles:
ANO OLA SCE:
OCEAN ALSO, Canoe Laos,
Yellow tiles:
BILUEAREB
There are Blue, bar,
In summary:
There's SAHARA, BLUE, OCEAN ALSO, TANS AGAIN. My guess is: He's in a place where the Sahara meets the Ocean. That's as far as I get at the moment.

I love this puzzle series. Each one is so simple and original. The difficulty is just enough to give you some idea of which direction to progress, but still teases the brain very much.
