Description: Bazaar day at mid-day. Villagers come from as far away as 15 miles to attend bazaar, which is held once a week during dry season. There is no bazaar during monsoon season because the bazaar area is virtually under water (from a few inches to a foot) much of the time. Most houses are on stilts or built on a 2-3 foot platform to avoid flooding during monsoons.
