Surajkund International Crafts Mela

Hey, guys, my name is simran singh welcome to my blog . Here I share information related to Surajkund International Crafts Mela.

Faridabad, the second largest city of Haryana, has several tourist attractions to see and explore. One of them is the Surajkund International Crafts Mela that is unique to Haryana. Come, let's know more about this fair that takes place in February every year in Faridabad.The Mela was conceived primarily to promote the pool of skilled artisans, who used indigenous technology, but were suffering due to the cheaper machine-made imitations. This is an earnest effort by Surajkund Mela Authority & Haryana Tourism to provide a platform for crafts persons and wavers to directly market their wares by eliminating the middlemen. Surajkund International Crafts Mela offers its visitors a lifetime experience as it unfolds a wonderful range of textiles, paintings, wood stock, ivory work, pottery, terracotta, stonework, lac querware, cane and grass products. To preserve the languishing arts & crafts of India, Surajkund Crafts Mela was hosted for the first time in 1987. The Mela ground is spread over 40 acres and houses about 1010 work huts that host crafts persons and weavers.
