📍 Dzuleke, Nagaland Dzuleke, just about 10km from Khonoma (the first ‘green village’ of India) and about 40km from Kohima (the capital of Nagaland) is a treat to the eyes of the traveller. Dzuleke is a delight to visit because of its serene beauty. Having gotten its name from river Dzuleke, there’s not just gorgeous flora and fauna but also incredible wildlife, especially ever since this hunting village banned hunting to protect wildlife. 👉✅Follow @discoverneindia 👉✅Follow @discoverneindia 👉✅Follow @discoverneindia . . . 📸 PC: @apen.small_villageguy . . . . . #Dzuleke #DzulekeVillage #kohima #kohimadistrict #kohimadiaries #kohimatourism #nagaland #nagalandtourism #nagalanddiaries #khonoma #greenvillage #nagalandtravels #droneshots #northeast #whereisnortheast #northeasttourism #discovernorneindia #explorenortheast #northeastindia #incrediblenortheast #paradiseofnortheast #discovernortheastindia #travelnortheast #explorenortheastindia #ResponsibleTourism #SustainableTourism (at Dzüleke) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoTyhQQrgqR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Lady Weaver Unlike other parts of India, where much of the spinning and weaving is in the hands of man, spinning and weaving in Nagaland is the exclusive monopoly of women. It is customary and a social obligation for every girl to learn to weave. Each Naga tribe has its own motif and design which form its distinct identity. It nearly takes 10 hours for an expert weaver to complete the plain strip or in other words, 30 hours are required to weave a complete cloth. 📷 : Sony ILCE-A7RM4 ##### 與印度其他地區不同，印度大部分地區的紡紗和編織都由男人掌握，而那加蘭邦的紡紗和編織則是女性的獨家壟斷。 每個女孩學習編織是慣例和社會義務。 每個納迦部落都有自己的主題和設計，形成了自己獨特的身份。 專業織工完成平整條帶幾乎要花費10個小時，換句話說，編織完整的布料需要30個小時。 #india #nagaland #khonoma #angami #tribe #natgeo #natgeoasia #natgeotravel #natgeoyourshot #yourshotphotographer #yourshotindia #hipaae #bbctravel #cnntravel #barcroft #tehhanlinportrait #camera #photography #singaporephotography #singaporephotographer #A7RM4 #A7RIV #sonyimages #sonyalpha #bealpha #SonyAlphaSG #sonyalphasclub #weaver （在 Nagaland） https://www.instagram.com/p/B55GsFBHOZ-/?igshid=1t58byy2al7lp
