Immerse Yourself in Bodoland's Creative Heritage
Weaving is one of the main features of Bodo culture where the Bodo women are well-known across the country for their exceptional skills in curating stunning handlooms and intricate designs. Each piece of fabric weaved by the Bodo people tells stories through its colours and patterns. The Dokhona (wrap-around dress) weaved in Bodoland is the heritage and identity of the Bodo people.
The Bodo tribes also hold a rich history in pottery-making especially earthenware utensils and pots. The pottery items showcase unique designs that reflect the unique artistic skills of the tribes.
There is a wide usage of bamboo in the art and crafts of Bodo people. Bamboo in Bodoland is used for making traditional Bodo houses. Along with house construction, bamboo is also used for creating various artefacts such as mats, baskets, and musical instruments.
