Taksar market in Bhojpur is a historical market in religious and cultural terms. Taksar Bazar, established in 1872 during Girwanyuddha Vikram Shah's time, is also considered to be a famous place in the east for metal business.
Shrikrishna Janmashtami Mela, which is held every year for the preservation of language, religion, culture, and tradition in Taksar, will be organized this year as well. Taksar Bazaar is also known as 'Mini Patan'. Here, the city was developed in the form of Patan, a Newari city in the valley. Here there are dozens of religious places such as the Krishna temple, Vihar, Chaitya, Gumba, etc.
According to local Sanukaji Shakya, Taksar Bazaar, established as a social, religious, cultural, and economic center, has become dilapidated recently. He said, "Religious monasteries, temples, viharas, chaityas, monasteries, and big houses here are becoming dilapidated due to a lack of protection. Shakya said that preparations are currently underway for the Sri Krishna Janmashtami Mela, which is traditionally held in Taksar. A two-day fair is going to be held in Taksar on the 20th and 21st of this year under the project of Bhojpur Municipality 12.
Taksar is a historical and religious place. Devi Prasad Karki, Ward President of Ward No. 12, said that it is important to preserve the tradition along with its preservation and enhancement. He said, "These various rituals and cultures are our precious assets. These religious rituals and cultures have united all castes in one place. Everyone should play their role in preserving the originality while protecting it."
The local Amrika Tamrakar informed that the fair, organized with the slogan 'Let's go to the historical Taksar market for the promotion of religious tourism', there will have a tableau exhibition of different castes, cultural programs, lache dance performances of different groups, and the Shrikrishna Rath Yatra.
Local Bimal Ranpaheli says that since Taksar is a historical place, there should be interest at the government level in its protection and development. On the occasion of Shri Krishna Janmashtami, fairs are held at Krishna Mandir, Taksar Bazaar, Dingla Bazaar, and other places in Bhojpur headquarters._Rss
