説明 | Wedding over, the next order of business was to drop off the wedding gifts to the bride's new home, complete with a buffalo head. (yikes!). That job was the prerogative of the immediate relatives so my son and I stepped aside a bit. It started pouring like crazy anyway. On the way to the bride's house, we spotted this shopping centre in the little town of Ukhrul (sometimes called Hunphun) right atop a mountain in Manipur in NE India. This is actually Ukhrul's famous Ava Market, which is a wet market where you can get many exotic varieties of fruit and vegetables, as well as other things like edible worm, all local to the area. The decor has a typically tribal feel to it, what? Details about the Ava market can be seen in this nice video by a local blogger Veronica Awungshi. Ava Market is apparently entirely staffed and run by ladies, a move by the local authorities to promote self sufficiency among the local women. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HScwCAzbCAo(Ukhrul, Manipur, NE India, Jan. 2020) |
