the items were dirt cheap, like a good quality leather purse was priced only 5 CHF, unfortunately they were not ready to accept EURO or $ hence I went to get cash in CHF, but it took me an hour to find money changer, and when I was back the market got closed. here thing to note is that at Switzerland most of the shops starts closing from 6~7 pm and not like India where shops are open late night. so I lost the deal.
So keep this in mind and do keep local currency for such road side deals in case u get an opportunity 🙂
another snap of the road size bazaar, move on this road and u reach the beautiful lake, turn left and u can see the Charlie Chaplin statue ..
most of the styles are like what is available in India … and the prices …. don’t ask me … a T-shirt will cost u ~35 CHF !!
the most interesting items for girls … remember my blog post for the most famous market in Pune called as “Tulsi Baug” where all over the year sell for all ladies items goes on in full swing … for sure u can not compare that market anywhere in world !! what do u say ?
As a curiosity I went on looking for the type of fruits available there at the super markets … if u see today most of these fruits are available in Indian malls too ! the world is becoming small …
Mirchi (red chillies), Cucumber and tomatoes
other vegetables ,, somewhat different .,. but as said versions of these are available at malls in India
Now coming to wines .,.,, various types of local wines u can see in super markets … in India this is not allowed to be sold in supermarkets ,.,, and there are local shops having permit to sell these …
I tasted one of them and was good ,..,, i shall say similar to the Nasik wines …
hope this was interesting to the girls ,,,, to plan what to buy for them being at Switzerland … hubbies be aware of the pockets !!! …
Cheers !!
