The lively appearance of a rural fish market and the smell of fresh fish

This afternoon, I went to the traditional fish market that we know. As soon as I stepped inside the market, the familiar noise and the smell of fresh fish hit my nose. The loud calls of the sellers and the bargaining of the buyers made the whole environment seem like a living work of art. The fish market means a different kind of love where the real form of Bengali daily food arrangements can be found.

Looking around the market, I saw fresh fish of various types arranged in rows. Small, silvery-shining, small, local fish of various types are arranged on plates, which are pleasing to the eye. Especially the shiny bodies of the long-shaped needle or kakla fish seemed to increase the attraction of the entire fish market. The sellers are arranging the fish with utmost care and the buyers are choosing the fresh fish of their choice. This simple environment of the village or local market brings people very close to their daily lives.

This experience of buying fish is truly wonderful. The joy of returning home with a bag full of fresh fish is different. The satisfaction of eating hot rice with fresh fish broth or fried fish is an integral part of our culture. Spending some time in such a market, away from the hustle and bustle of the busy city, makes the mind feel good. Everyone seems to be busy in their own way, exchanging pure Bengali things. Such a beautiful afternoon is enough to relieve the fatigue of every person.
