Banastarim Tourist Information

Think Banastarim and you are bound to her a bazaar buzz in your ear. Its name has become synonymous with rustic marketing. The famed market is perhaps as old as Banastarim itself. Evolved as it has from a barter trade set-up to the present day currency ruled one, it has somehow managed to maintain its bustling rural charm. Unspoilt, its truly Goan virginity beckons even the most sophisticated shopper. Honest and hardworking folk from neighbouring villages and also from the far flung hinterland decorate the market every Friday with their goods. The selling-shopping activity actually starts on Thursday evening, slumbers off for the night, and is full grown early Friday morning. Week after week, addicted shoppers religiously flock to it like it were a Zatra. It is a haven for shoppers desirous of picking up a variety of home bred produce at reasonable rates.

It continues unshackled and sets its own pace, while accommodating all and sundry; turning back no one for want of space. It's there one day, gone on the next. Other weekly market get-togethers held in other Goan villages are no match for the Banastarim bazaar. It definitely gives the now over-hyped Mapusa's Friday market more than a run for its money. No trinket -selling Tibetians and Lamanis here, only a pure unadulterated Goan shopping experience.
