The floating market appears as the center of Barisal’s (aka The Venice of Bengalbeauty. Nobody knows when the idea of this floating market began, but it’s a hundred-year-old tradition. Development and modernization are taking over the country but it’s surprising to see them not reaching this river-oriented life yet. For more than 100 years, the local farmers have been experiencing the ups and downs of life along with the ebb and flow of the river. Many farmers and wholesalers gather here every day. Not the only guava, but there are also other fruits sold in this market.The southern region of Bangladesh is famous for guavas, more popularly known in Bangladesh as ‘Bengal’s Apple’. Especially in Jhalakathi Sadar Upazila and at Swarupkathi and Banaripara Upazila in Pirozpur, farmers heavily rely on guava farming. Such diversity of life is hard to be found in other places in the country. Loss in guava farming in one season usually leads to extreme distress for the farmers throughout the year. The current year is one of those.

The floating guava market is mainly located in a village called Bhimruli. The village is a part of Swarupkathi Upazila in Pirojpur District. You can easily go there by road from Barisal City, passing through Jhalakathi and directly stopping at Atghar Kuriana (at Swarupkathi, Pirojpur). You will find many wooden boats and various types of trawlers waiting there to take you into the villages. You are surrounded by water and hundreds of boats filled with guavas. If you look above, you can see the blue sky with grey hues. The place is so serene that it feels calm, no matter how much noise you make. But, don’t make noises though. Its origins are unknown, but locals suggest that it has been around for over a century now.

To start off, the 200-year-old market is absolutely fascinating! You are surrounded by water and hundreds of boats filled with guavas. If you look above, you can see the blue sky with grey hues. The place is so serene that it feels calm, no matter how much noise you make. But, don’t make noises though.For obvious reasons, the place has become quite a tourist spot lately. Here is all you need to know about the floating guava market.Every year, the market starts getting lively from the first week of July. The season stays till the first week of September. The locals start picking guavas and the activities of the market happen between the hours of early morning and noon.The floating guava market is mainly located in a village called Bhimruli. The village is a part of Swarupkathi Upazila in Pirojpur District. You can easily go there by road from Barisal City, passing through Jhalakathi and directly stopping at Atghar Kuriana (at Swarupkathi, Pirojpur).

Please be respectful and non disturbing to the local people and salesmen, theyre really irritated by us. Some people play loudspeakers insanely loud on the boats and party horrendously. So please avoid that.

Guava Floating Market in Pirojpur:Farmers use Kuriana canal in Pirojpur to get to floating markets with their boats loaded with guava. During the monsoon boats are often used to harvest the fruit as well.Kuriana is one of the 49 villages in Barisal, Pirojpur, and Jhalakathi that come up with 80 percent of Bangladeshs guava production. Hundreds of people of those villages have seen financial independence cultivating guava on 30,000 acres of land.

Floating Guava Market.The largest guava garden in the continent of Asia has been established in the three districts of Jhalokati, Barisal, Pirojpur. Vimruli Floating Market in Jhalokati district of southern Bangladesh. In the Peaar season, the Hat has returned to life throughout the year. Bikikini, which is about 15 kilometers away from Jhalokathi district town, runs from morning to evening every day of the week, from the small canals of Vimaruli village. Hundreds of boats are loaded with guava. The vendors find the buyer in the canals here. And most of the buyers are the wholesaler. They came to market with big engine boats. Buy guava from small boats and run them in Dhaka or any other big city.

A lovely place to visit at Bangladesh. The backwater villages of Barisal, Jhalakathi offers lots of guavas in the season and villagers gather in the specific area to sell their products by boat. It is unique because the whole market is situated on water. It is the only floating market in Bangladesh and everybody should pay a visit to this place.

A great and lovely scenic place in barishal, sarupkathi. If you want to see village, river, bazar, fruits garden, people and a proper village its a right place to go. Your eyes will be drown in the green. Everywhere you will see green even the water due to reflection. People are good and friendly. Try to avoid holiday and weekend if you are a traveler and real nature lover.

Aha this is the place..... I like it most, historical but not that much publicity about it even three years before but now so many people come & explore this place. Huge market but not only Guava but also other fruits, crops trade here. But facility for tourist very poor. No modern washroom, no good restaurants available here. Trading time early morning to 11am maximum.
