Silk fabric workshops in the city's Muslim quarter, to be visited after a stroll through the narrow streets

As you wander through the alleys of the old city, you will surely come across a vendor who will be happy to show you his workshops where silk fabrics are made. During our stay in Varanasi, we met Rajesh, who runs a small store near the Golden Temple (Sunam Handicrafts - D 5/13 Tripura Bhairavi). After showing us his fabrics and giving us all the keys to avoid being cheated on the merchandise, he kindly showed us around his silk shop, located in the Muslim part of town.

On suit les conseils de notre batelier et entrons dans une soierie.Visite très didactique .On devrait ne plus se faire avoir et ne plus confondre les différentes qualités de tissus.

N’hésitez pas à prendre un transport local (vélo) pour vous rendre dans le quartier musulman en lui demandant de vous déposer dans une fabrique de soieries (choisir, si possible, une fabrique conseillée par vos guides).
La visite de ateliers, la démonstration des étapes de fabrication, des différentes qualités de produits est intéressante mais n'oubliez pas qu'on souhaite, même si rien n'est obligatoire, vous voir partir avec une soierie de la maison.
Rentrez à pied pour traverser ce quartier musulman avec ses petites rues et ses marchés.
