This is One of the famous local food market in Zanzibar.
it’s a place where you can find and have almost everything you need in the food section, (Fresh and at a very low / reasonable price.)
The market is very famous due to its unique style, arrangement (Specified Portions) and Running style.
The market has Beef Butches section, Fresh fish Section, Spice section , Fresh Fruits and mixed / different variety Section. so if you fail to find what you are looking for, just go to mixed / different variety Section, there you will get what you want.
so the Sellers have arranged them self in that way to make more life easy to their customers and quest visiting the market. Though the market is very populated especial during the afternoon since different people from part of Zanzibar going there for shopping but still you will find path ways to move around the market.
So if you need some fresh fruits, Vegetables, Fish and meat, Spices and further more even to experience Zanzibarian local life style this is the right place to visit.
I like the way people are so humble, everyone has his or her own internal motivation, Not only youth but even, Women and Older people they all seat together as a community with the aim of one goal to sell as the best they can,
once you are at the market it’s a normal thing to see everyone is welcome you at his or her business. People from this area have high and good Customer care with pleasant language that will convince you to stop and buy from him or her and sometimes even just to have a look, this is what encourages them more.
The wonderful this you can come across a local guy Speaking your language, don’t be surprised, or you hear someone speaks more than 3 Foreign language.
The market has the best products and cheap price ever,
For anyone you can go with your expensive camera to take pictures but with a request for a permission a person before taking the picture, Some they like to be in the picture some don’t like to be in the pictures, so the better way is to ask the individual first.
Do you wanna have more fun, Say or talk to any local person a Swahili word there you go, you will love the moment of being there.
People are very friendly and its a Safe Market.
Thank you everyone these are some of my experiences of being there, i have much to say the beauty of this place but i leave for you to say more after passing to this place.
