This is a must visit place in Tashkent for a number of reasons. You can ask a cooking master class and learn how to make plov. And eat your own creation. We had a plov prearranged for our group of about 30 people. It was amazing, served with two salads, assortment of local bread and tea with local sweets. You can have Abru Bahor master class - ancient art of drawing on water. You can create your own piece which will be put into frame and take it home for memory. You can also take paint your "piala" - clay bowl, or take a master class on clay making.
You can visit great shop with souvenirs, one of a kind fashion items, made from silk and cotton. Paintings and many other things.
The place is very authentic, clay walls, nice courtyard, and master classes on the roofs of the tiny clay buildings.
It was a best place...
