A village bazaar by Balu river

Rivers are fast disappearing from Dhaka and its adjoining area, so do the river-side makeshift bazaars as small and big constructions are taking over those sites. However, Beraider Haat by the river Balu near the capital's Badda is still carrying the tradition of open-air village markets. The pictures are taken on Thursday. Photo: Mahmud Zaman Ovi
