This post provides an easy guide to two artisan villages around Bhuj. It is a perfect day trip from Bhuj, and shop for some beautiful fabrics from local artisans. <\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Bhujodi<\/a> and Ajrakhpur are well-known villages that receive many visitors and textile artists from around the world. Each village specializes in its art of weaving or block-printing. As a beginner in textiles, this post outlines a few studios you should visit to gain an idea of how block-printing and fabric dying work. You can purchase fabrics from artists. Also, if you spend more days in Bhuj, take a short block-printing workshop from one of these artists. Tip: If you are traveling but still want to buy fabric to make a modern dress, it is best to get it tailored in a large city. It costs around INR 500 in Bengaluru.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
