My Visit To A Baishakhi Mela-Paragraph

Baishakhi Mela is a fair which is held regularly every year in the month of Baishakh, the first Bengali month. Baishakhi Mela bears an image of the rural Bangladesh. It beautifully reflects the true rural picture of our country. However, I recently visited a Baishakhi Mela in our locality. I went there in the evening. I saw stalls of various things and articles of daily necessity were set up. In those stalls potteries and traditional handicrafts, bamboo flutes etc. were mostly available. Besides, various cakes and sweetmeats were, brought there. I bought two flutes, some baloons and cakes of different types. The cultural functions of the traditional Bangla folksong, zaree, sharee, bhawaia and zatra were also held there. I heard folksongs attentively. The songs reminded me of our cultural heritage and identity. I passed my time very pleasantly. In fact, I enjoyed the Mela very much.
