Description: |
|
A longstanding event has endured among the glittering towers and
lush gardens of People’s Park, attracting unwanted tourists and
the curious. The
“Marriage Market” gathers every Saturday and Sunday, where
parents flock to the north end of the park from noon until 5:00
pm to get their daughters or sons matched.
There are notices posting the particulars of each son or
daughter — usually
listing gender, year of birth, job position, salary earnings and
what type of mate they wish to secure for their child.
Far from being an antiquated idea, the “Marriage Market”
or sometimes called “matchmaking corner” is always crowded with
parents seeking matches in equal amount to parents advertising |
