| The Monpas are highly skilled in weaving and
make some of the most brilliant carpets and shawls in the
North East. You can pick these up hand-woven wonders in the
Bomdila and Tawang craft centres. The Apatanis too are known
for their weaving and their shawls and jackets make great
souvenirs to take home. They also make handmade paper from
the bark of the Daphne Botanica plant found in their jungles.
Arunachal is also famous for its colourful masks, agarbati
(joss sticks) and leather items. Tangkha paintings, a beautiful
religious art form whose primary subject is the Buddha, also
make for lovely mementos for friends and family. |
