more village photos

ladies in the rice field nursery uprooting the rice to be planted in the fields - this is called transplanting. they thought we were hilarious for some unknown reason!

a local method of moving irrigation water across a gap in the rock.

TOLD you all i would get some geography pictures in somewhere. terraced farming with the fields flooded in preparation for the rice crops.

there is a dam in the picture somewhere. see if you can spot it. when we were told there was a dam in this valley we though concrete monstrosity not the local variation! but still very interesting, especially when the road ended 3 km earlier so how would they get concrete here?
