Bombolulu Workshops and Cultural Centre
Parim aeg külastamiseks
Prefer the morning, from opening at 9 a.m., when the heat is still bearable and groups are absent. Weekdays are quieter than weekends, which are very busy with Kenyan school groups.
Eelarvenõuanded
The entrance ticket with guided village tour and dance show is around 500 KSh, or less than €5. Workshop prices are fixed with no middlemen, a much fairer purchase than in town, and the restaurant offers generous portions at low prices.
Soovitatav
Families, Craft and ethical souvenir enthusiasts, Photographers, Travelers seeking responsible tourism

Teave
Kiired faktid: Sada kolmkümmend puudega käsitöölist valmistavad helmestest ehteid, puunikerdusi ja värvitud kangaid, oskust, mida kantakse edasi sama töökoja sees. Iga müüdud tükk rahastab nende töötajate arstiabi, proteese ja haridust, kogu majandusmudel on suunatud nende iseseisvusele.
Esiletõstmised: Poe taga avatud hoovis saab jälgida käsitöölisi töös: sõrmed liiguvad helmestel metronoomi täpsusega ja töökoda kajab väikeste haamrite tiksumisest. Seejärel viib giid teid rannikurahvaste rekonstrueeritud külla, kus tantsijad tõmbavad teid etenduse lõpus lavale käest, komme, mis jääb meelde.
Sisekujunduse nõuanded
- Wear closed, comfortable shoes: the gravel paths between workshops are long.
- Ask to see the kanga weaving demonstration, a spectacle of hands worth your time.
- Attend the 11 a.m. show in front of the reconstructed village: the shaded benches fill up fast.
- Bring cash in small bills, as some shops and the restaurant do not accept cards.
