VISITING A TRADITIONAL MARKET


Traditional markets are very important in Indonesia. The reason they are so important is because they are the places where sellers and buyers do their bargaining. In Cianjur, you can go to a traditional market any time of day, as they are always open. Lucky for you there is a traditional market, only 500m from the house. Don’t be surprised if the sellers look at you strangely when you visit, as tourists often don’t go to markets such as these.
You can buy as spices, vegetables, fresh fruits, and try to bargain, practicing some Sundanese or Indonesian words. The sellers will be happy to speak with a foreigner!
