A paradise program for shoppers willing to enjoy the fun and art of shopping. Observe world renowned native handicrafts actually being crafted by master craftsmen and their assistants. Elaborate teakwood carvings in hundreds of forms and sizes, intricate handmade silverware, high fired celadon, lustrous black lacquerware, Thai silk and cotton being woven in the ancient, traditional method on rustic wooden looms; primitive paper making process, handmade paper and silk parasols in a dazzling blaze of rainbow hues. See skilled artists painting on parasols. High skill and endless patience are a pre-requisite and a necessary virtue to work in these industries.
