The rainy season, which - in the Indonesian archipelago - takes place between October and April, is also the fruit season. Opening the season is usually guava (jambu biji/batu). Then Mango, rambutan, durian, and a host of other tropical fruits are available in abundance.
In the photo is a street vendor selling mangoes at Jalan Raya Barat Cimahi in the west of Bandung.
Mangoes in the rain, nice photos.
ReplyDeleteI have a mango waiting in a paper bag in a dark cupboard. Is that really the way to hasten their ripening?
Nice photos and (to me) it is also quite unusual fruit.
ReplyDeleteI saw guava for the first time in India in March but most of those fruits aren't readily available in our grocery stores!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like there is plenty for everyone.
