Unusual watermelon-shaped market stalls have recently appeared in Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan, attracting attention with their distinctive design and offering watermelons and melons for sale directly on the streets.
According to eyewitnesses, these vibrant kiosks have quickly become popular landmarks in several neighborhoods, The Caspian Post reports, citing Kyrgyz media.
The Bishkek city authorities have officially authorized the installation of these stalls as part of a broader initiative to streamline and regulate the sale of melons and watermelons. The move aims to curb the practice of selling produce directly from vehicles outside designated zones, which has been banned to reduce traffic congestion and improve road safety.
To ensure freshness and comfort, the market stalls are equipped with air conditioning, benefiting both vendors and customers during the hot summer months. This initiative not only enhances the shopping experience but also contributes to better urban order and safety.
