Fix Price, Ladies

The Langsa Traditional Market, Aceh province, Indonesia is located in the heart of the city center next to the largest mosque in the city. As is typical of all cities in Aceh, the markets and mosques will always join hands. In this market you have to be strong walking along different sides of each shop for the item you are looking for. Clothes, shoes, bags, vegetables and fruits, noodle sellers, egg sellers, onion sellers, to dressmakers and shoe tailors are all here. I really like buying fresh soursop fruit from farmers who also grow it them self without pesticide.

Fresh Fruits & Vegetables

These photos showing the atmosphere of buying and selling activities between traders and buyers, also various different items can be found in this market. In general, the traditional market here sells almost all the needs of the locals. The sellers are divided into several types,like the sellers of fresh vegetables and dried spices, most of the vegetables here pick by the farmer who also the sellers here, they manage their own garden, harvesting and sell them here. There are also vegetables sellers that are bought eveything from big farmers in Brastagi-North Sumatra and sell them here.
