For over 500 years, this town on the banks of the Ganges has been alive with the sound of looms, turning simple cotton threads into wearable art. Known as the "weaver’s town," it is the best place to see the soul of the Tant Saree, famous for being light, airy, and incredibly elegant. Walk through the narrow lanes to see the legendary Nilambari sarees, known for their deep "midnight blue" color, and meet the master weavers whose families have been practicing this craft for generations.
