Mirgul Abdulla, a villager, came to the night market with her friends. They chatted as they savored roasted barbecue, cups of beer and cold dishes.
"I love it here. The food is fresh and there are many familiar faces, so we can eat to our hearts' content and have a great time," said Mirgul Abdulla.
At 11 pm the market became more boisterous. A group of youngsters started to sing and dance. Then four local artists sang songs on the stage as they played musical instruments. The night market erupted in great rounds of applause as the artists sang.
The venue provides locals with a means of relaxation and entertainment -- but more than that.
