Phulbari Vegetable Market, Dinajpur

in Hot News Community5 days ago (edited)

A large vegetable shop in the vegetable market.


Today's topic I am describing is a busy market. It is one of the vegetable markets in Fulbari upazila of Dinajpur district. This market is located behind Kali Mandir, 300 meters from Fulbari Nimtala intersection on Library Road. This market starts from early morning till midnight. It is a very noisy market.

A large crowd of people can be seen here in the morning. In the morning, numerous small cars and rickshaw vans can be seen here. People from different areas come here to buy wholesale goods. Between five and seven in the morning, there is a lot of noise of cars and the noise of the harem market. Due to which the retailers cannot enter there in the morning.

I last went to Fulbari Vegetables this morning with my friend. When I went there, there were a lot of retailers there. They are buying raw vegetables from specific shops according to each demand. Here every vegetable seller is calling to buy vegetables from his shop.

Me during a vegetable shop visit.


Every shopkeeper calls here saying "Come and buy fresh vegetables from my shop" There is a lot of shouting here. The loudest word here is "Come and see my fresh vegetables" and the small words are the price of the product. No one says the price of any product out loud. Everyone keeps it confidential with different customers.

When I was there, goods were being delivered from vans to various shops and many people were buying their required vegetables and potatoes. However, I was not there for long. Every now and then, bikes and small vehicles were moving around this place transporting goods from one place to another, which made it difficult to take videos or photos while standing on the road. When I was there, however, the number of government employees was very high as they joined their workplaces only after shopping here. All the sounds present in the video can be found here.



Various vegetables in the vegetable market


While making the video, I entered a vegetable shop and I have included pictures of several well-known shopkeepers, including the dried fruit shop there. I have included those who would not have any difficulty in making my video if they were included here. My friend helped me while making the video here because his house was next to this vegetable market, so he was able to help me a lot and I did not have to face any embarrassing situations.


YouTube video


While making the video here, I am trying to present all kinds of local words and I have recorded the words of the shopkeeper about the products here which will seem very natural to you. In this video, I have included my friend so that I do not have to face any difficulty. There was a small road through this vegetable market so I have also captured the pictures of some people traveling on this road in the video so I think there should be no problem. Although they forbade me from uploading this video on Facebook.

thanks for your valuable comment..

A market is a place where there is definitely noise. Such places have a large population. Due to which there is a lot of noise. Everyone is busy with different things and talks a lot. All these things together make it a very noisy place.

Because of this, there is always a lot of noise in the place. But I find it annoying. There is nothing to do and I always have to go.

Brother, you have tried to present a very beautiful vegetable market scene to us. I really enjoyed seeing the vegetable market you shared. Every vegetable market is crowded with people. Thank you very much for sharing the post in such a beautiful way.

Thank you for your participation in Geo-Quest Mystery – Week 2: The Sound Map. Here is an evaluation of the post by @mainuna, following the official Week 2 rubric for Geo-Quest Mystery.

Evaluation Summary

CriteriaScoreComments
1. SteemAtlas Pin & Sound Description1.70 / 2.0The SteemAtlas pin is included with coordinates and a clear named location (Phulbari Vegetable Market, Dinajpur). The post also gives strong local navigation context (behind Kali Mandir, near Nimtala intersection, Library Road) and clear market timing. The sound description is good and specific (vendor shouting, vehicles, delivery vans). To reach full points, add one concise “listener anchor” line: what you hear first at the entrance and what the dominant sound is at peak time.
2. Creativity of Mission & Hidden Sound Challenge0.70 / 2.0The market choice is perfect for a Sound Map and the post includes real sound-focused observations (“fresh vegetables” call, price whispered). However, the Hidden Sound Challenge is missing in the proper Week 2 format: there are no three hidden sound clues for others to guess. To score higher, hide three sounds using short metaphor hints and invite readers to guess them after watching.
3. Speem.watch Proof Video (20–60 seconds, focus on sound)1.40 / 2.5A video proof exists (YouTube), and based on your note it captures authentic market ambience (voices + vendors talking). However, the Week 2 requirement is a Speem.watch proof video. Since the post is “Posted with Speem” but the proof is shared only as a YouTube link, full points cannot be awarded here. To improve: publish the clip via Speem.watch (even if YouTube is the source) and ensure the duration is 20–60 seconds with a short still moment so the sound layers are clear.
4. Storytelling Quality2.10 / 2.5Strong “sound narrative” structure: time window (5–7 AM peak), crowd behavior, clear loudest vs smallest sounds, repeated calls, and a realistic sensory snapshot of deliveries and movement. To reach full points, add a sharper “one-minute listening” moment and include 1–2 surprising micro-sounds (flip-flops, bags sliding, coins, bird layer, etc.).
5. Engagement (Listening / Guessing others)0.20 / 1.0Engagement appears limited: you noted the author commented on only one other post. Full points usually require listening to at least two entries and guessing their sounds/clues.

Final Score: 6.10 / 10

Remarks:
This is an authentic and well-located Sound Map entry with clear market identity and strong sound observations (especially the contrast between loud vendor calls and whispered prices). The main score losses come from (1) the missing Hidden Sound Challenge structure (three hidden sound clues), (2) proof video compliance (ideally via Speem.watch), and (3) limited engagement across other entries.

Communication sound is one of the sounds I heard in this video. In a market, communication cannot cease. All sellers communicate with themselves when they don't have customers and why I call it a sound is because it's produced worry the mouth and it tend to be the loudest.

  • Dragging Footsteps is another one I heard. People get to drag their foot on the ground which shows tired or probably the shoe not fitting in well.

These are the sounds I got. . Are these the sounds you highlighted?
