Madhubani walls, Bhagalpur silk, Chhath on the ghats
Bihar's culture is not in museums — it is painted on village walls in Mithila, woven on handlooms in Bhagalpur, sung at Sufi shrines, and performed by a million people standing in the Ganga at Chhath. This collection is for travellers who want to meet the makers.
