Title

Sustainability at Religious Sites

Description

Years ago, religious sites such as monasteries would be completely self sufficient. All the goods needed by the monks and the surrounding community would be made in the monetary itself. This tradition is having a resurgence in today’s age. These locally made goods are being created and used to boost the economy of the area through tourism and sales to visitors.
