KHIVA SILK WORKSHOP

This small silk factory has taken over the cells of the Yaquboy Khodja Madrasa. You will be able to follow the manufacturing process and watch the dyeing of the silk threads and then observe the making of fabrics or suzanis. In several places in the courtyard have been arranged the different products used to make silk: cocoons, threads, natural dyes, which you can touch and discover. The quality is not as good as in the Ferghana valley and the prices reflect the little competition around. Take time to negotiate.
