概要
クイックファクト: 50人以上の地元職人が、整然と並んだ小さな木製の屋台で作品を販売している。この村の名前は、キガリの中央市場が現在ある場所にかつて生えていたヒノキの一種に由来する。
見どころ: ゴーデンスという名の72歳のバスケット編み職人が毎日自分の屋台に座り、アボカドの葉や玉ねぎの皮から作った天然染料で繊維を染めている。彼女は祖母から技術を学び、訪問客とずっと話しながら小さなバスケットを2時間足らずで仕上げることができる。
インサイダーヒント
- Politely ask before taking photos of artisans or their work, a small purchase often makes them happy to pose.
- Arrive early to watch weavers starting their day's baskets, the process is fascinating and less rushed.
- Skip the mass-produced items near the entrance and walk to the back stalls for higher quality handmade goods.
- Bring small bills, many artisans cannot make change for large notes on slow days.
