The foodstuffs were sold in the market and many locals came here to buy. Most of the shoppers were minority people. So it was a nice place to see various minorities living around this town.

During walking around, I found a woman wearing a fabric on her head. She was carrying two baskets on both edges of her pole. It was a good idea to bring a yoke to the market if you want to buy in large amounts. Anyway, apart from the South Asian countries, the yoke was carried also by women.
