Some fair are held for a day and some for two or even more days. It is generally held in the open place or on the bank of a river or a canal. All men, woman, and children gather in the Baishaki mela in a large number. Fency goods, toys, ballons, flutes, sweets and wooden things are mostly sold in this mela. Circus parties are also a common feature in a Baishaki Mela. They often bring trained elephants, horses, monkeys, bears to entertain the spectators.
