Dolls made by local craftspersons on display near Patwa Haveli at Jaisalmer

Dolls made by local craftspersons on display near Patwa Haveli, Jaisalmer The craftsmen were working right there on the street near Patwa Haveli at  Jaisalmer  and putting up their creations on the walls. Made a colourful display. There is so much talent among the craftspersons and the rich traditions they inherit. Pity that most of them do not get the recognition they deserve as well as the price.

Craft bazaar at Taktsang, Paro

Craft bazaar at Taktsang (Tiger's Nest) When you descend from the green cover at Taktsang ( Tiger's Nest ), there is this open space with local vendors selling all kinds of craft and accessories. Noticed a tall white woman who seemed to be straight from a Hollywood Western film. Even had the same swagger. Very peculiar personality.
