Why don’t we have a look at some of these different areas, then you can make up your own mind about their cultures and art perspectives. Egypt usually gets the most recognition for old art and cultures, but let’s look at something different. It might be a better idea to look into some different and less common art types, and the countries in which the originate from.

  • The Maldives, also known as the honeymoon location of the world. This is definitely one of the most popular places to visit for a luxury holiday, but what does it have to offer in the way of arts and crafts? This is a different insight into the past of another culture, more precisely the Maldivian one. Interestingly the most skilled form of art in the Maldivian culture is that of Calligraphy, mosques and villages are covered in some of the amazing writings, passed down through the generations. Because of their situation in the world, the Maldivian men and women need to be a dab hand with sailing and building boats, which is why their woodworking is so amazing.
  • This is the glorious Caribbean. This is one of the most diverse places to experience different arts and crafts. This although is a region, it is filled with many different countries and peoples. Because of all the different countries that have contributed to the culture of the Caribbean islands we get a massive amount of difference and variation amongst the arts and crafts. Of course woodwork is quite well utilized over here, and the general structure of the area is quite unique. {Obviously the general Caribbean Region has been overrun by tourist resorts, but they have maintained quite a local presence~This is the glorious Caribbean has become one of those places that is surrounded by tourists, it is one of the greatest places to land straight into another culture, but still have your own surrounding you~{The Caribbean~This is the glorious Caribbean} is unique, mainly because although there are many different cultures here, including the tourist culture, so much for you to experience}.
  • This next one is Sri Lanka. This is one of those places that has become a great tourist location. Poverty is still a factor here, and one way they cope with this is to create arty pieces for tourists, and they all still have very strong ancient cultural ties. You aren’t likely to find art like this anywhere else in the world. Everything that they create has been built around the environment, and how it effects their lives. Sri Lanka is very different, and for all these reasons, it makes the art unique and special.

So why not try Sri Lanka holidays, Caribbean holidays or Maldives holidays, to enjoy a completely different aspect of art in a different culture.
