Visiting the village of Dhungakhani ("Rock Mine")


The village of Dhungakhari lies near a rock mine in in the rural area near Tansen.


Farming families in Dhungakhari grow fruit trees, graze buffalo and tend ancient terraces.

Waste from the toilet and buffalo dung is fermented in this fermenter to generate gas for heating and cooking.
