Sargaalaya Craft Village, established by Kerala Tourism, is India’s first designated craft village, envisioned as a space where culture, tradition, and creativity converge. Spread across 20 acres on the banks of the Moorad River, the village is designed as a live museum where artisans from different parts of Kerala demonstrate their craft in open studios. Visitors can not only purchase authentic, eco-friendly handicrafts but also engage with artisans to learn about the intricate processes behind weaving, pottery, bamboo work, mural painting, stone carving, jewelry-making, and more.
The village is also a platform for preserving traditional art forms while promoting responsible tourism. Alongside craft workshops, Sargaalaya hosts cultural events, performances, and craft festivals, making it more than just a marketplace—it’s an immersive cultural experience. Its serene riverside setting, traditional architecture, and community-driven approach make it a must-visit for travelers seeking authentic insights into Kerala’s heritage.
