Travel Photo of the Day: Pots of Twante, Myanmar (Burma)

Colorful pots fom the pottery town of Twante in Burma

Located in the Iyerawaddy delta, it is the clay of the river that makes Twante a special pottery town of Myanmar (Burma).  For centuries, the people of Twante have lived off their pottery skills. Even today, their pots are of huge demand throughout Burma, but unfortunately, a lot of their new generation travels to neighbouring Yangon to do jobs in the city. This town, with its rustic riverside atmosphere and great pottery industry makes for a fantastic day trip from Yangon, the capital city of Myanmar (Burma).
