    Diving into the art of silk weaving was a delightful surprise during my journey. I was particularly fascinated by the moment when I got to try my hand at operating one of the traditional looms; the rhythmic motion felt oddly therapeutic. The instructor was incredibly patient, sharing stories about the history and significance behind each pattern I attempted. However, I felt a bit rushed at times as the scheduled three hours seemed to fly by too quickly. Overall, this experience offered a fantastic glimpse into the craftsmanship that has been cherished for generations, making it a memorable part of my travels.

We had the chance to sit at the loom, trying our hand at weaving under the guidance of a skilled artisan, which was both challenging and rewarding. While the workshop was a bit crowded, the rich stories shared about the traditional techniques made up for it, leaving us inspired by the craftsmanship behind every piece of silk.
