Spin, Spin And Spin, Potters In Nepal Go Busy With Tihar On Door Steps
A Nepali potter shapes clay into the form of an earthen lamp at Pottery Square in Bhaktapur, Nepal, on October 12 to meet the demands for the upcoming Tihar, the festival of lights. The charkhas and modern machines set beneath the tin spin throughout the day, along with the hands of the potters who make them, because the festival of lights, Tihar, approaches. Pottery Square in Bhaktapur Durbar Square attracts a large number of tourists as well as buyers of pottery items, which are found at comparatively lower prices than in the main market.
