In the morning, after breakfast, we will begin our journey.
Margilan — a city known since ancient times as a center for producing the finest silk in Central Asia, rivaling Chinese silk in quality and beauty. Silk caravans from Margilan traveled along the Great Silk Road to Kashgar, Baghdad, Khorasan, and even Greece.
We will visit the silk factories. The “Yodgorlik” factory in Margilan is the only one where the traditional handmade method of silk production is still preserved.

After breakfast, we will head to Alisher Aka’s Pottery Art Center on the Rishtan Road. Alisher Nazarov is one of the most famous masters of Rishtan ceramics. He began learning this art at the age of 12, went through all stages of training, and became a master. He worked as the chief designer at the Rishtan Ceramic Factory, interned in Japan, participated in international exhibitions, and in 1998 opened a school for young masters, where he still teaches today.
The city of Rishtan is famous for its magnificent glazed ceramics, which are very popular among tourists as souvenirs. We will visit the ceramics center, meet the masters and their works, and observe the process of making ceramics.
Lunch.
On the way, we will stop in Kokand, which was once an important point on the Great Silk Road and part of the ancient Devan state. The city flourished in the 18th century when it became the capital of the Kokand Khanate and a religious center of the region — in the past, there were 40 madrasas and 300 mosques.
