The Road to Kandy – Wicker Village
Although I prefer to take the train to Kandy, taking the road has its advantages. On our way to PeraHera, we dropped into two villages but passed by many others such as, Cashew Village, Fruit Village with Rambuttans, Leather Village, and Plastic Blow-Up Toy Village. Now, you may think that I’m making this up, but I think there’s some kind of Economic Development Co-operative-thing happening on the Road to Kandy and therefore, the villages have ’specialized’ and co-operated in not competing with each other’s special market areas. Well, at least that’s my take on it, anyway.
Here are some pics from Wicker Village:
My friend, Brenda says that the above items are very durable and practical… a great gift – Can you tell what they are and how they are made?

Although Wicker is light, it is also bulky and therefore doesn’t make the best plane cargo…we ended up not buying anything at Wicker Village. However, if I go back, I think I will take a second look at the salad spoon and fork made out of the same material as the third photo from the top. Feel free to put your orders in!
