Bazaar (a word of Indo-Iranian origin., Approximate meaning. "Market" [1] ) is the commonly used name of a trading place, with minimally equipped or unequipped trading rows or even under the open sky [2] , where there are many sellers and buyers and retail food and goods .
Mainly commodity producers themselves (formerly peasants , artisans , currently farmers , factory representatives, etc.) also trade in. It can also be used to designate trade in certain goods, for example, “book market”, “fish market”.
