Visiting a silk weaving factory, where one sari may take months, and a cotton weaving shop, with special pit looms weaving special patterns, showcased the intricate and detailed crafts of South India. We learned about the artisanal methods of tile making, where color is mixed with cement for special tiles that last hundred of years. We stood beside stone carvers, where one slab of granite also takes months to be formed into a massive sculpture of deity. Time and talent blend to create these wonders.
