Turkish Carpets and Kilims

We can visit a local centre for authentic traditional handicrafts where local women still make and sell the most beautiful Turkish carpets, kilims (traditional flat-weave carpets) and sumacs (a special type of silk-embroidered kilim with nomadic motifs). Visitors can watch carpets and kilims being made in designs passed down through generations. In fact it is generally agreed that some of the designs from the wall paintings at Neolithic Catal Hoyuk can be seen in the motifs still used today! The dyes used for the wool are all natural, and one of the workers will explain the processes and you will be able to see behind the scenes - it's absolutely fascinating.
