CLAY POTS

When you have a chance to travel PHYAR PONE township of IRRAWADDY division, you will see these handmade clay pots parking in front of almost every household. People from that area keep rain water in these pots to utilize as drinking water for year round. Due to high level contamination of SALT, water from traditional wells in PHYAR PONE area cannot reach drinkable quality. Means these clay pots are so universal in IRRAWADDY delta. Some households keep tens of these giant pots to reserve enough fresh water solely for drinking.
