Both words are in the dictionary...bazar was the earlier way of spelling it. Many words have changed spelling over the years

ba·zar - noun1.a marketplace or shopping quarter, esp. one in the Middle East. 2.a sale of miscellaneous contributed articles to benefit some charity, cause, organization, etc. 3.a store in which many kinds of goods are offered for sale; department store.
Also, ba·zaar.

[Origin: 1590–1600; earlier bazarro < It ≪ Pers bāzār market]

—Synonyms 1. market, mart, exchange.
