    Khiva Silk Carpet Workshop

    At the Khiva Silk Carpet Workshop, apprentice carpet makers hand-weave silk rugs patterned after Khiva-style majolica tiles, doors and miniature paintings. There's lots of natural-dyed silk hanging around and you can watch women work the looms. Ask the personable English-speaking manager Jalol for a tour. They have a second workshop in the Kutlimurodinok Medressa, where there are other handicraft workshops as well.
