Hi Hello my dear people, I am Saran here. This time i came up with a intresting information about the people of community named Roma living in Europe. Their culture made me amazed and gave me energy spark to write this blog about their culture.
Bride's Market in Bulgaria
Recently I heared about this Roma culture which is the marriage of those peoples are held at a marketplace. Yes, the marketplace for Brides. Before that, I wish you to know about who is Roma?
The Gypsies, They are 8 Million of all around the world. They origined in Rajesthan in India and moved to Europe Hundreds of years ago. Some of them are in the Middle East. They have very bad reputation and they are really oppresses. Their traditions are standards or not comparable with others.
The Roma"s building and streets are still look like the government under USSR. Some of the European citizens says the Gypsies are really nice peoples. I Think the new generation people of them are awarnessed about the social relationships well and unlike their forefathers they are collaborative with others.

I heared about the brides’ market in Bulgaria. Where girls gather every year. Here to be sold.
he prices are determined by the family.
Today, we went to get to know the Roma there. They hate Bulgarians, despite having citizenship. And Bulgarians also hate them. Why do the Roma have bad reputation? A lot of them here are living in slums. They steal. They live without paying bills, without rules. When Bulgaria joined the UN, they opened the borders. All the Roma went out, scattered across Europe. You find them in Britain and everywhere. That’s why we decided to drive for hours from Sofia. To Stara Zagora, hours from Turkish borders. A Roma family will host us in their house. Preparations started for the big day.
I have to be from the same tribe to be accepted. Her daughter is ready tomorrow, they say she costs About to thousand in the market. Everybody is going with her, her mother And everyone is going to the bride market to prepare For this event. It’s almost like social media But in real life. Boys and girls can meet each other And get married.
They ask for their prices. Okay guys, we’re now at a house of the Kalaidzhi. This is their house. And now we’ll have interview with them Because the event is tomorrow, the bride market. Tomorrow, they will be sold. They like traveling and moving, and they’re private. You can enter some of their houses, some of them are good. The Roma have a bad reputation. And now this is like a tribe from the Roma.
She’s preparing. She put on make-up, and chose a suitable dress for this day. Kalaidzhi tribe don’t marry with other than their own. Even if they were all Roma, it has to be from their tribe years ago, this girl was on a documentary; And they filmed her when she went to the bride market. Until now, she goes every year, and she didn’t get married. They started coming, they started to gather here Their numbers continue to increase. And not only girls wear gold, even the guys. Wearing them everywhere, rings, chains. Expensive gold That indicates wealthiness, and to attract girls.
Brides market will start in a bit. Someone has just found a wife, they agreed. What happens is that they get to know each other Then, they discuss the price. Girls here feel like a product, in Europe! That’s why Europeans film documentaries here Saying how are girls for sale in Europe?! Girls here have to be virgins. If she isn’t, nobody will marry her. Maybe it’s their families, culture and traditions That affect them this way.
