Featuring vibrant stalls, the 21st edition of the Kerala Bamboo Festival celebrates artisans and promotes a sustainable lifestyle.
At the entrance, a bamboo gallery displays products developed by the Kerala State Bamboo Mission and the exclusive kannadipaya (mirror mat) designed by the Kerala Forest Research Institute.
The kannadipaya —a traditional tribal craft—requires exceptional skill, and it is heartening to see the younger generation embracing this dying art form and introducing it to a wider audience.
Stalls brimming with colourful bamboo creations captivate visitors, sparking awe at the versatility of bamboo and the artisans' ability to transform these humble green cylindrical pieces of wood into intricate masterpieces through patience and dedication.
