- The oldest and craziest market in Shillong Meghalaya is Ïewduh (also known as Bara Bazar) which is also the main market in the city. We went shopping there with a 'Khohshot' which is a local basket with a chest strap made from bamboo wood.

Loofahs are crop plants. They grow in vines like cucumber or squash. They are edibles just like cucumber or pumpkin. Only young ones can be eaten. It contains fiber which helps in digestion. It can be prepared just like any other vegetables like making soup. It is tasty. Mature loofahs are used as scrubbing sponges. You can find people selling loofahs with covering. This right here is already peeled off. Try it!! 🙌😄
This is the most detailed explanation. Thank you 🙏🏻
To be more specific, that loofah is a kind of vegetable in khasi we call "sohprew" and in English it's known as "snake gourd"
@@DCTravelerExperience glad I could share a little of what I know 😄
It's Ridge Gourd vegetable. When it is dried, you get the loofah.
I know what tis is bt I am more satisfied with the explanation ❤️. Your grammar is too good ❤️.
Using KHOH is example of eco-friendly not embarresment Well done DC traveller

@@thwissilakharbithai1904 she's crushing so hard🤭
Most of people are travel in meghalaya, shillong bro, but I can't see to carry A Khoh like you.... all the best👍👍 bro......
#KhohIsaStyleStatement as one of the commenters mentioned 💯
@@DCTravelerExperience where are you from brother
Gujarat
Literally northeast India is the real definition of natural beauty...
Beautiful market so many interesting fruits & veges,, sending lots of love from Nagaland 🤩
Couldn't agree more! Love from Shillong.
Btw, Nagaland is on my list, I want to eat worms in Kohima 😀
@@DCTravelerExperience wow🥳 excited can't wait to watch Nagaland series😊
Thankyou so much for waking up the sense of culture to the local people by carrying a khoh in which 99 percent has forgotten about this traditional khoh.
I love khoh 😎
Shillong is probably the only place in India where you can talk to all the locals in English
That’s great 👍🏻
I like seeing you with the khoh..where most people are feeling shy to carry it nowadays... looks like you have brought revival in it....continue to explore more in Meghalaya...God bless you 🙏🙏👍👍
Thank you and God bless 🙏🏻
thank you bro for showing this generation not to feel weird of carrying a khoh whether it be in a city or any place that could be while it's in Meghalaya(where khoh was found). yeah I agreed it looks truly unique n beautiful n I hope our cultural handmade material stay still as long as we're alive 🤞🏼😍
Amen to that 🙏🏻
My mother taught me that you will never get lost in iewduh. There is always a way out, even in the smallest nook or lane. Also, it's so nice to see you carrying a khoh. We don't see that anymore in Shillong. Hope you had a great stay and an amazing experience.🙌
I live in Shillong now, thank you for your comment 🙏🏻
Iewduh is like a maze.Anyone here for the first time alone would definitely get lost.Finally mastered my way inside this market growing up and doing my weekly marketing here.Although it is dirty especially during the rains but somehow “Iewduh “has its charm.Wonderful to see you carrying your”Khoh” in Iewduh Darshan 😊
Thank you! Weekly marketing? 🤔
Yeah,thats where my Mum use to take me when I was young buying eatables and stuff every weekend.There is more variety in Iewduh and also much cheaper compared to markets in your locality especially now with the skyrocketing prices in vegetables.
After watching this, I felt my states needs more professional tourists guides who're easily accessible......anyways loving your integrity, humility and intellectual vibes in your videos.... And Sir, so glad to see you visiting our Shillong again.... Thank you for taking your viewers around Shillong ❤
Haha but I can only afford the free guide 😉
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you 🙏🏻

Thank you and God bless! 🙏🏻
I must say your vlogs keeps getting better and better - so glad to have a glimpse of your day here in Shillong. After a long wait of knowing that you'll be posting about shillong 🤭and here it is I got so excited when I saw the notification and that to its a shopping vlog in iewduh 😅. The only thing running throught my mind while watching the video was - how is he able to walk around iewduh with a khoh and not get pushed,stuck in a place because of the crowd, stepped on the foot by someone else or even whistled by the men carrying the boxes to make way for them to pass , but anyway it was fun to watch and seriously waiting for the next vlog which I'm guessing is the khasi market for second hand clothes 🤭🤭 okay now I think this comment is too long 🤦🏻♀️🤣but yes eagerly waiting for the upcoming vlog . And I have to say for a man from the city adapting himself in a small town and that too in the North East Meghalaya, hats off to you for not complaining but living it in the best way and enjoying every detail about our state so thankyou so much for showing love and respect to my hometown🥰🤗
Thank you, I appreciate your comment! 🙏🏻
Khoh seems strong and useful for many ways. One may need skills and great patience to make a Khoh. It was nice that you carried it comfortably in crowed and narrow paths in market but i hardly saw people still carrying Khoh. It's good to learn about Khoh from your video.
Glad you liked it, thank you 🙏🏻
Welcome DC traveller you got a correct count great...👍👍
Thank you 😎
Now that you're living in Shillong I hope we'll get more shillong vlogs🤞 and also i love the bloopers😁😁
Definitely 💯
The khoh man is back 😀

I lived in Shillong 35 years ago.Nothing much has changed in Iewduh.My office was nearby.There was a wonderful Chinese restaurant there.Ming Room.

We used to see it in kerala. Its a fruit of a plant once it gets dry, u pluck n remove the seed and skin then it's ready for use. We call it peera.
Interesting!
And some days, you just start your day with DC Traveller.. 😄
Embarked on a journey to Meghalaya this time..Really looking forward to another amazing adventure!
And also..waiting for the big reveal in this series which you mentioned about in your video chat with Raghu 😃
#khohisastylestatement
I like the hashtag! 💯
Thank snd and yes, stay tuned for that 😉
That natural scrubber is called sponge gourd a vegetable when it turns in dry stage it looks this
Sohprew is one kind of plant which is planted in the paddy field or else we can also take out the seeds and just on the ground and it will come out it's plant. And the one which has been sold in the market is a dried one and also called brash for using while taking a bath . Otherwise undried one are using for eating.
Nice khohshot n keep it up👍👌
Thanks 😊
I am already impressed with your khasi language 😍
😎🙏🏻
the small basket u buy is called shangkwai(Shang means basket )
Thank you 🙏🏻
Well Mr DC Traveller the first purchase you made is called as 'Sohprew' in Khasi and widely known as 'loofah', so that actually comes out from a kind of vegetable like a gourd, where the tender or green Sohprew is used for cooking as a vegetable, and if left for longer times till it turn yellow and dry, naturally that scrubber look form and can be harvested to use as a 'Sohprew' for bathing purpose.
Got it, thank you for explaining 🙏🏻
loved it. I remember using that natural brush to wash our bodies. It will give you a nice foam with little soap. We also used it to wash our utensils.
Excellent. Thanks for your comment 🙏🏻
Welcome back! Be careful with your wallet there are many pickpockets in iewduh.

That is a natural scrubber(creeper/climber), its not make but grown, when its ripe we pluck it from the tree it creeps and peel off its skin. Its not rocket science 😁😁😁

Haha sure!
Hi DC been to these markets in younger days, those years I hunted for audio cassettes, Chinese kungfu shoes, fountain pens, tip point pens, calculator, watches, etc, japanese audio cassette player or two-in-one Panasonic, and many more items, which are no longer available after opening of economy of the country, now found in free markets and shops, but japanese two-in-one Panasonic can never be found these days perhaps, they are no longer manufacturing these items. Now you are a khasi mama khasi bah, you've picked a lot and beginning to look like one of them. I'm your avid vlogr followr. Keep up friend. Old city buses no longer in service on city roads, the one with pipes.
Lot of nostalgia! Speaking of busses, I like those buses that go to Smit.. planning to visit Smit in one of those old school busses soon!
The girl where you buy that tungrymbai is so cute n beautiful 😁
I know, right? 💯😀
@@DCTravelerExperience 😂😂😂😂 make sure you ask her no nxt time 🤣🤣🤣

Thank you 🙏🏻
Hi DC traveller....its interesting to watch ur vlog😊...actually...we khasi dont usualy use khoh to iewduh...khoh is mostly used wen we go to fields n rivers...to iewduh we usualy carry 'ka pla'...i gues u know wat is it...its a cloth carry bag which we carry behind our shoulders...its more convenient...
Yes I know pla-iew.. khoh looks cooler 😎
Very true...hehe
His name is Khot Bahduh
BTW-Khot mean - called
Bahduh is his name
Haha I know that now 😀
You have to bargain in iewduh😅
Yeah right 😀
It isn't made. It's a dried up part of a kind of gourd. In the raw form it is edible, a sort of lauki. When it dries up, the skin hardens and the inner part is the soft part inside. The hardened skin is peeled out and the 'loofah' is ready, naturally,
The floor brush is also used to scrub stubborn dirt on clothes. It is made from the root of the bamboo.
Looking forward for your upcoming videos.
Coming soon
It is a type of natural fruit that we can eat also cooked like vegetables in khasi name sohprew
Good👍 khoh u star kit shamet
You should visit Kyllang Rock, Mawphanlur and NONGKHNUM river Island..... You don't want to miss these places..
Sure, I’ll make a note of this
@@DCTravelerExperience See from Google maps they're really beautiful places. Sadly 99.999999999 percent of travelers who came to Meghalaya didn't visit these places...
Am your new subscriber from Meghalaya, Ri-bhoi district. Love to see your video bro

Ai jing mut ma ng phong da ka riam khasi tynrai te la itynnad bha
Be vocal for local thanks bro
Vocal for local. I like it 💯👍🏻
The name Khot Bahduh went viral😅😂 love it❤
😆
Lovely to see you being a local in the place of your love. A wholesome market place.
And great move buying turmeric... seriously, it is very beneficial to overall health.
Thank you for another informative vlog 👌🌟💫
Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for the comment 🙏🏻
Rebaptizing Bah as Khot Bahduh😄😄 100 bucks for a khoh is too cheap considering the labour and the crafting skills involved!!!
I know, it’s cheap!
That soh prew that use for bath it is not handmade it is a vegetable that we use to eat. With that vegetable we just keep it till it become hard and then we will peel out its hard skin and we will get that for bath.
Got it, thank you 🙏🏻
Love Meghalaya vlog and Ladakh too. Where next traveling?
