Handicraft Walk
Handicraft Walk
The fast emerging metropolis of Agra manages to retain pockets of traditional crafts. Join this walk for a visit to some of these workshops and see artifacts being made!
Agra is well-known for major industries like footwear, jewellery, and the tourism industry. Their export system runs all over the world. But apart from these, there are a lot of small and traditional businesses like the kite factory, thread factory, wooden utensils factory, zardozi arts. These have been run for centuries by old families who’ve been transmitting these high-skilled crafts across generations. Whenever we walk or go through the old markets of Agra, we encounter very small shops selling these indigenous good. But walking in, one discovers huge galleries inside them, where workers carry out their work. During the walk, we will explore the working system of these small factories that have silently been serving the city for generations. You will bear witness to the fast handiwork here along with the myriad skills.
