I went shopping on 22-12-2023 on my weekly off-day from the office. We all know Dhaka Gulistan has different types of shopping markets in Bangladesh. Today, we will share about a shoe shopping market in Gulistan, Dhaka. Old good good-quality shoes are available at low prices in this shoe market. As far as I know, stolen shoes from different parts of the country are brought here and sold.
Me & My Office Colleague
Today, I came to the office in the morning and went home after advising the electricians. Then, I took a bath and offered Friday prayers. After having lunch, prepare to create a post on the Steemit platform at home. At such time my office colleague comes to my house. He asked me to go to the Gulistan shoe market in Dhaka to buy good quality shoes at low prices. I closed my laptop and left with my office colleague. We first boarded the bus to Dhaka Gulistan from the front of the house. After about forty minutes we reached Gulistan.
I have heard that the seller will ask for a higher price for shoes here. But the price has to be reduced and purchased. So the two of us will plan and tell the price of the shoes. First, we walk the whole market and look at the shoes. The shoes are sold in different containers standing on the side of the road. Today is Friday, and as the office is closed, there are lots of customers coming. We enter the shoe market by bumping into people.
| Shoe Name | Quantity | New Price (Local) | New Price (Steem) | Purchase Price (Local) | Purchase Price (Steem) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oxford Shoes | 1 Pair | 3500 Taka | 112.9 Steem | 500 Taka | 16.12 Steem |
| Baby Shoes | 1 Pair | 1500 Taka | 48.38 Steem | 300 Taka | 9.6 Steem |
Then we choose two to three stores by walking on the shoes. But I couldn't buy it due to a price mismatch. Then I like the shoes in a shop and buy the shoes. Then we went out of the shoe market and had a drink.
My thoughts and feelings about the shopping experience:
I always heard that Dhaka Gulistan has a stolen goods market. Today, I had the experience of buying shoes from that market. But a little fear worked. The seller asked the price of the shoes that we bought for 1500 Taka. But we bought the shoes for only 500 Taka. If you go to that market and buy without experience, you will stumble.
Then I like animals. I especially love pigeons and cats. Since we came to Gulistan today we entered the biggest animal market in Gulistan. I walked around and saw pigeons and kittens. I liked the kittens and the pigeons. I have learned and experienced the prices of different breeds of pigeons and cats. Will be buying a cat next so I have an experience on price.

Hi, Greetings, Good to see you Here:)
Saludos amigo
Es un mercado muy grande donde hay variedad de zapatos y a un buen precio. Me imagino la cantidad de personas que acuden a ese mercado para buscar bueno precio.
Sin embargo aunque visito varias tiendas pudo conseguir uno que vse adaptarán a su presupuesto
