Market Day in Tengeru

Saturday is Tengeru’s market day, and you could begin to sense the chaos when entering the village. People from miles around come to buy and sell almost anything--animals, produce, clothes, spices, etc.

Vendors bring their wares and display them across the ground on blankets or mats.

The bustling open-air marketplace is filled with sounds and smells that seem to assault the senses.

I guess when you haven’t grown up in that environment, it takes a bit of getting used to.
