RAMADAN BAZAAR - GAYA STREET

The holy month of Ramadan, 30 days of fasting started on 11August. It is also the good time for non-Muslim to experience the Ramadan bazaar. I came across one in the Gaya Street yesterday. The stalls were selling all sorts of traditional local delicacies and popular home made drinks for the breaking of fast. The colourful Ramadan bazaar at the entrance to the Gaya Street in the City center.
You name it and they have it. You can buy a wide variety of food - Curry, Rendang, Kurma, BBQ, noodle, Nasi Goreng, Bryani rice, fried bananas, all kinds of local dessert and drinks and etc,etc.

This once a year Ramadan Bazaar has become a tourist attraction. Many foreign visitors are seen "touring" and "tasting" the food at different bazaar spots in the city.
