chanderi sari pt1

[byronicman]

You know I would probably never write for a travel magazine. The reason is, my most favorite spots are the ones I would want to keep secret. Now some great places are totally on the map, and I wouldn't mind telling everyone about my experiences there. And there are those places I do not want broadcast all over the internet, well not to freely at

yes that's true. I could say, "turn right at the second fort, when I really meant third mosque."

Wow! I am ashamed to say this but I never knew so much about Chanderi! Although, I own a Chanderi sari. :p

Looking forward to more such write ups.

You are probably the only person on my friends list who had even heard about Chanderi saris before this post. So don't feel bad ;p. Is it a nice sari? It is neat to see that such nice things are made in such humble surroundings, yes?
I was looking in your user profile, and you are from Delhi? So then you are from the same general area where Chanderi would be known. :)

you are right about the remote locations. no need to advertize them....word of mouth is good enough :)

[byronicman]

No potters in sight, but they must be around somewhere...
