New Market stands at the heart of the city and rejoices in the rich culture and vibrant history of Rajshahi City. This is one of the places that projects the whole spirit of Rajshahi and its commercial atmosphere.
The market started its journey in 1969 and, till this day, has been the name of comfort and affordability for Rajshahi people. Not only for the residents of Rajshahi city, the New Market area has become a tourist spot for visitors outside of Rajshahi.
The new market area falls under Boalia Thana, Ward 20. But it has gained its name and popularity. Located conveniently near the Rajshahi City Corporation, you can ask any locals for directions, and they will easily point the area to you. It has become the most popular rendezvous point. As the Rajshahi City Corporation is situated near the new market area, it is showing progress.
The new market area was once very ignored and dilapidated condition. The residents started to avoid the area due to the bad Odor and some scummy people. However, the scenario has changed. Rajshahi Development Authority (RDA) has taken charge of bringing the glory back, and they have succeeded.
The new market area started as a shopping destination for locals. But now it encapsulates the whole vibe of Rajshahi City. The Rajshahi Development Authority (RDA) has revitalized the New Market area. The Shaheb bazar pond, corporate offices, historical landmarks, and residential areas fall under the RDA board.
So, today’s New Market Area is not just a shopping destination but, you can say, a city inside a city. It has become a common place for hangouts, meet and greets, and food heaven for foodie people. The bustling lanes of New Market will take you on a nostalgia journey while quenching all your shopping needs.
