Nearly 10 percent of India’s population are members of ancient indigenous tribes, whose art and cultures have managed to survive into the 21st century. The Tribes India showrooms are government-run shops located throughout the country that are dedicated to providing an outlet for tribal peoples to sell their handicrafts—jewelry, textiles, paintings and food products. The Fort Cochin branch is set right behind the Head Post Office on the Parade Ground. A plus of shopping here is that prices are fixed and fair.
