It's a very interesting place. There are very few of them, so be sure to visit.
This is the territory of a silk-spinning factory. It all starts with a store where you can (and should!) take a tour, as the employees hardly speak Russian and will not be able to explain anything to you. The tour takes about 30 minutes.
You will be shown how the thread unwinds from the pupae of silkworms, how it is spun. How the threads are then prepared for painting, how and with what they are painted, and how, finally, silk and other fabrics are woven, as well as carpets are made.
It's very interesting!
There is also a workshop where there are machines and you can also see the work.
The store sells fabrics and clothes.
In general, the territory is very beautiful, there are many fruit trees.
We are very glad that we have come! Nowadays, it is rare to see really traditional production and fabrics made by hand. Everything can be touched and bought! Friendly and kind staff! I recommend visiting and buying exclusive gifts!!!
A wonderful place!!!!! I recommend you to visit!!!! Very atmospheric, antique. Everything is clean, people are friendly. There is a hotel, shops where you can buy souvenirs and clothes of your own manufacture. The fountain is clean, it pleased me in the heat.
We were in the afternoon, there were almost no visitors because it was very hot. They gave us a tour and told us everything.
An interesting tour with a woman from the family of the new factory owners. She showed me and told me all the production technology, but due to the fact that we were there in January, there are no employees, it's cold. There is a store where I bought fabrics. I'll give you a little price guidance. Cotton is thin, 40 cm wide, 3 dollars per meter, silk 40 cm wide, 15 dollars per meter. The work is handmade, so the price is more than adequate. I didn't use the finished products, they are too authentic, I just have nowhere to wear them. The factory is a must-visit if you are in the Ferghana Valley!
There are several factories in Margilan, the largest and most modern of them is Khan Atlas, and in general, the small Yedgorlik was created in 1972, and its name could be translated as a Gift or Souvenir - from the very beginning, the emphasis was not on Soviet mass character, but on preservation traditions.
It occupies an old madrasah (according to other sources - a caravanserai) of Serli, and behind the gate is a former mosque built in 1842
It also houses the factory's branded store, and the assortment here is almost more beautiful than the interior
A good place to see the Silk production, there are Guides there to accompany tourists and give clear and precise information, they unfortunately know English and Russian and other languages. I recommend everyone to visit this factory.
A wonderful factory. If you want to know how silk appears, that's where you're going.
On the tour, you will be shown and told the whole process from the appearance of silk threads to the canvas. The masters have been working for generations.
Fabrics are woven both manually and on machines.
A pleasant place. We were very glad that we stopped here. The process of silk production from cocoons to fabrics and products is shown. Everything is clean, a large area.
A very interesting tour! They show all the stages of silk creation in a real, working production. They answer all the questions and show everything.
On the territory of the garden - persimmon and pomegranates, treat visitors. A good store, you can choose something interesting and unusual.
Very cool, I recommend visiting!
Interesting. Informative.
A small factory with a full cycle from receiving the thread to the finished product.
The amazing transformation of the silkworm cocoon into threads and further into fabrics and carpets ...
Work both completely and manually and by machine.
Amazing silk carpets, clothes, scarves.
They show all stages of production
There is a store for those who wish.

A must-visit place, a lovingly recreated Weaving Factory that is still in operation, a wonderful guided tour, and a unique experience. Near the bus station
An interesting place to visit. An excursion with a detailed story and a demonstration of the silkworm process. Starting with cocoon, thread making, linen, coloring, hand looms.
It is located in the city center, a five-minute walk from the bus station. At the entrance to the factory there is a shop with things and balls made of local fabric. I will briefly orient you on prices.
A scarf with a national pattern from khb costs 60t sum, silk ones from 150t sum to infinity, national robes from 750t sum. A huge selection of fabrics, at prices from 30t sum.
We got to the factory when everyone had already gone to prayer, so everything was closed. But the director came up to us and offered to tell us and show us everything. It was very entertaining. Such an excursion cost 100t sum (50t/person). By Moscow standards, the prices here are low. I definitely recommend it for a visit!
An interesting attraction in Ferghana.
The visit to the showroom is free of charge. Factory tour - 30,000 soums per person.
On the tour you will learn (but not the fact that you will see the process in person) the technology of creating dyed fabric from the moment of the cocoon's respiration to the moment of the sale of the fabric.
All processes in the factory are mostly manual, but there are also machines. I can't say that it's incredibly interesting here, but it's still curious.
There is a parking lot, a cafe, and a toilet on site. You can enjoy tea, coffee and dried fruits.
The tour can be conducted in Uzbek, Russian and English.
An interesting place. We were on an excursion. They showed how silk used to be made by hand and how it is now done on machines. They even gave us a handkerchief to dye ourselves. It turned out to be very beautiful!
I advise tourists to visit this place. To find a guide who will take you through all the workshops and tell you about this craft, you need to go to the souvenir shop (at the entrance, she got fat on the right side). The price of the guide is around 30,000 soums. The tour will take a little less than an hour.
My wife and I have specially allocated one day for a trip to this factory from Tashkent.
Initially, I thought that it would not be interesting for me, but in fact I got great pleasure from getting acquainted with the production process from the doll to the finished product.
Today, the factory is undergoing a process of global restructuring and modernization.
As we were told, a space will be opened - a museum, a hotel, but at the same time the factory will work according to its intended purpose.
I learned a lot of interesting things. I was impressed by the painstaking process of making silk fabrics. I bought something for myself at a local store. Connected to the Internet helped with the help of a video to make a choice to a friend.
The entire territory is being reconstructed, it is not very presentable yet, but after the repair I think it will be better. The place is interesting, you can learn a lot of new things. I recommend you to visit.
Everything is beautiful and cool, but expensive - the refinery and the guests did not buy anything! The prices are too high!

The production of silk products has become unnecessary for anyone. The factory is supported by the production of cotton products. Excursion for Russian speakers 30000sum per person.
We are absolutely delighted! We saw how silk was made from cocoons until the product was fully ready! Uzbeks are allowed to pass for free so that they know their history, for the rest the cost is 25,000 som.
There were, but the production was closed due to the cold. At first they said that they would show the production itself (the workshops themselves) without any problems, but after visiting the store during production and not buying anything there, they refused us. Not particularly upset, but unpleasant. It would not have been lost on anyone, and it will not be lost. As they say, it happens 😃
I really liked it there! But only because it's all just very interesting, unfortunately, everything is just collapsing, it seems to be being repaired already. But to look, so to speak, in order to understand the process, I definitely recommend it. By the way, I didn't like the store. Look for fabrics in the markets. For example, in Kokand, which is not far from there.
I liked it, but the work is not easy at all, a meter of fabric is hand-woven for a whole day, and carpets are at least 4 years old. It is a very time-consuming process. There is a store where you can buy fabrics and finished products. An interesting place to visit.
