June 12, 2021 Jasper Kershner

Madhya Pradesh (MP; /ˈmʌdjə prəˈdɛʃ/ ( listen); meaning Central Province) is a state in central India. Its capital is Bhopal and the largest city is Indore with Jabalpur, Gwalior, and Ujjain being the other major cities. Nicknamed the "Heart of India" due to its geographical location in India, Madhya Pradesh is the second-largest state in the country by area. With over 75 million inhabitants, it is the fifth-largest state in India by population. It borders the states of Uttar Pradesh to the northeast, Chhattisgarh to the southeast, Maharashtra to the south, Gujarat to the west, and Rajasthan to the northwest. Its total area is 308,252 km. Before 2000, when Chhattisgarh was a part of Madhya Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh was the largest state in India and the distance between the two furthest points inside the state, Singoli and Konta, was 1500 km. Konta is presently in Sukma district of Chattisgarh state.

Malaya

Reviewed By onamigration - Toronto, Canada

Just like most of the people, I did stumble across this shop almost accidentally. I wasn’t looking for anything particular, but I am glad that I discovered this quaint little shop, full of marvels. The shop is flitting with handicrafts collected from across the country. Each one is hand-picked, exquisite and notable. I found it a tad bit pricey, however taking into account the effort that would have gone into collecting these artifacts, it is worth the price. I purchased a terracotta bird caller, tried out a few times and was truly mesmerized with its efficiency in attracting birds. Unbelievable!!! I did try out the rainmaker, it was simple bamboo filled in with some kind of seed and each time you moved it, it would produce sounds as if it was raining. I do not recollect the name of the lady running this shop, however, what I do remember was she was extremely warm and affable. She explained to me about the various crafts and showed me what some of them did. There is a variety of crafts displayed ranging from handmade dolls, organic cotton scarves, jewelry, pottery, terracotta, wood, bamboo, cane, wrought iron, paper mâché, coconut products, ceramics, metal works, leather items, shell & stone things, hats, bags, toys, local art, paintings and much more. You would want to purchase each and everything available in the shop. The shop supports indigenous arts and crafts and local artists. So, do your part and when in Bandhavgarh do purchase a few things from there and support the artists.
