New Market means you will get everything in one place; from clothing items to shoes, from jewelry to food items, from household products to books; anything and everything. And the best thing is you will get the products in a very reasonable or I would say at a cheap price.
This marketplace is more than 50 years old. It's like a part of our tradition to visit this place while visiting our capital city Dhaka. You can take a look at this WiKi link for more detail about this shopping area. I also have added it on Pinmapple so you can see the exact location.
It's been a while I had not visited this huge shopping place, the pandemic is one reason and another reason is it's far away from where I live now. But last Friday I had to take care of something urgent so I went through this area.
Let me share some photos of this place!
It was just a day before the lockdown so the crowd was huge. Also as it was the weekend so I was pretty surprised to see the crowd, it felt like there's no covid!
Newmarket is most popular for its open-air market. There's a foot overbridge where you will find different household products or jewelry at a very cheap rate.
Also, the shops are full of products where you can find almost everything!
This is one of my favorite areas where you will get to customize blocks on your dresses. Also, they have pre-blocked dresses too so you can choose whatever you like from thousands of collections!
Then, I had to move on to the 'Saree' market. Though it's not part of the new market this area is also near the place.
Also, there are many food corners, juice bars, restaurants, and even many street foods where you can take a break from shipping, relax and have some food.
We had some street food, had coffee, and roam around the place a little bit. It was after many many days we had the chance to visit this place so we didn't want to miss out!
So that was my visit. I hope you had a glimpse of this bust shopping place.
See you around...Have a wonderful day, everyone!
