Description
This special trip to the Khmer Traditional silk village today helps you to understand about local life and development of the silk village. You will listen to their stories about how the silk made and dried naturally. They do everything by hand using traditional Khmer methods – a process that will not be rushed. It takes half a year to dye fabric with natural indigo because every day it must be plunged into the dye water and hung out to dry, until the dye is deep and color-fast but unlike artificial dyes that fade with time. Seeing the descendants of the silkworms that spun the yarn and the trees the dyes come from, the village is rather a part of the forest too. Please come and see the fact.
