Kasabu boavalhu, the\u00a0 embroidered part of the dress elaborately decorates the neckline with a technique, slowly fading into history\u00a0 today called Kasabu Viyun. The entire procedure is one of the most fascinating aspects of Maldivian culture\u00a0 featuring a short wooden stout vase-like structure called a Gathaa Fai.<\/p>\n<p>In the local language, the art of weaving is called \u201cThundu Kunaa Viyun\u201d (reed mat weaving) and is considered\u00a0 a dying form of art that originated from the Gadhdhoo island. One large mat takes approximately one month\u00a0 to weave, which probably is the reason that it is not practiced by the youth today. However, the ladies at the\u00a0 resort got the chance to learn the rich history of the local culture and the significance that the local women\u00a0 held in society then and today to uphold the economy by doing their part.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the workshops, guests were treated to a delectable selection of canapes and women\u2019s day inspired drinks along with a therapeutic art workshop held by the resident artist \u201cKadek\u201d providing an\u00a0 opportunity to enjoy rhythmic movements and to let the inner stress flow out of the body with every stroke of\u00a0 the brush, where the guests were able to explore their creativity and express themselves through the subtle\u00a0 language of art.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>\u201cAs a luxury boutique resort in the Maldives, we are honored to be part of a rich culture where women of all\u00a0 walks of life bring color and energy into the society in numerous unspoken ways,\u201d said Raffaele Solferino,\u00a0 General Manager of the resort.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cAt Grand Park Kodhipparu Maldives, we strive to be an equal opportunity\u00a0 employer by inspiring inclusivity to eliminate all gender barriers and stereotypes by encouraging women to join\u00a0 our team.
