O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Več kot 2000 trgovcev se tu zbere vsak dan in pred poldnevom premakne približno 500 ton svežih pridelkov. Samo zelenjavna dražba obravnava skoraj 200 sort, kar ta kraj uvršča med največja distribucijska središča v državi.
Poudarki: Opazujte bananino dražbo, kjer se snopi zamenjajo vsakih nekaj sekund, cene se kričijo v hitri sinhalski, delavci pa zlagajo piramide zelenih trpotcev. Oddelek kraljevih kokosov deluje izključno na zaupanju, kmetje puščajo kupe sadja z ročno napisanimi cenami in se vračajo čez nekaj ur, da poberejo plačilo.
Notranji nasveti
- Wear closed-toe shoes, the concrete floors stay wet and slippery from crushed fruit and washing water.
- Head to the large covered hall near the main entrance for the best photography light filtering through the roof vents.
- Skip the plastic-packaged tourist stalls at the front and walk deeper into the maze where farmers sell directly.
- Visit on a Friday or Saturday for the biggest variety and most dramatic auction action.
