One featured traditional handicrafts, coconut products, spices, batik, Ceylon tea, Ayurveda products, biscuits, cookies, fruit drinks, and rush and reed products. The other showcased Sri Lankan cuisine and Ceylon tea, which were warmly received by visitors.

Princess Basma Bint Talal, accompanied by ambassadors and representatives of diplomatic missions, toured the bazaar and viewed the handicrafts and traditional dishes presented by participating countries.
