Silk paper
The first stop on our route is the village of Konigil. You will see the entire process of making ancient silk paper from a tute, which was recreated in 1998, and learn why it was in great demand far beyond Samarkand.
If you wish, you can take part in a master class on pottery craft: open the veil of centuries-old secrets of pottery craft, learn the basics of working with the pottery circle and painting in traditional techniques.
Art of the East
The carpet factory "Hujum" will also open its doors before you. The production of oriental silk carpets survived, which even Marco Polo admired. You will learn about the work of the craftswoman, observe all stages of production. If you like something, you can buy it - first-hand.
"Eternal City"
Then we will move to the complex Silk Road Samarkand: on the territory of 17 hectares an entire ancient city has been recreated! You will immerse yourself in the atmosphere of a beautiful oriental fairy tale - with turquoise domes, mosaics on the walls of palaces and minarets to heaven. Without leaving the complex, you will travel to the streets of Bukhara, Tashkent, Fergana, taste national cuisine from different eras and regions, touch the history and traditions of the peoples of Uzbekistan.
