Craft quest of Tripura

A mixture of rich cultures, skilled bamboo handcrafted products and the sweetest of pineapples and litchis defines this small green state Tripura. The people are expert in crafting beautiful bamboo baskets, furniture and Sheetalpati mats. We explored the craft villages like Charilam and Nalchar which were famous for bamboo weaving and basketry. Here we share the glimpses of life in Tripura and organic village lifestyle that people adore.
