It is known that the production of silk paper in Samarkand begins in the 8th century; rather quickly, paper becomes popular due to its quality. At that time, many pen professionals, calligraphers, used Samarkand paper to write books. At the end of the 19th century, the production of modern paper almost displaces the use of silk paper and art almost disappears. Thanks to the efforts and zeal of Zarif Mukhtorov, almost forgotten art was restored. Today, visiting the Koni Ghil Meros production center, you do not only see the production of silk paper, but also get acquainted with the production of sesame oil and the manufacture of Samarkand ceramics.
