a woman selling brooms at the Kohima central market
Just because markets are fun, and Kohima’s market is populated by fun people, who are incredibly nice and friendly, patiently explaining the various goods for sale – many of which I haven’t seen before. A few more pictures, of the odd products, the colourful stalls, and the atmosphere.
