Baluchistan Diary - Day 5 / Leather factory, Sibi


Leather factory, Sibi
Originally uploaded by Ameer Hamza
We visited this British era factory for leather processing. It was of a considerable size and must have been very active in its time. It was finally closed down in 1975 for unknown reasons. Last year someone sold all those antique metal roofs along with the machinery of colonial era. The rest of this factory is slated for complete destruction. I hope not.

This expedition is funded by www.pakgateway.com.
