Very interesting place where you can watch the process of making a paper without using gas or electricity. Everything is natural. The place itself is pretty clean. Entrance tickets cost 20.000 sums. There’s a studio of ceramist in the entrance to the complex from the right side. You can also watch the process of making the “zigir” oil. The room is located in the middle of the complex. And there’s a new side of the complex. You can take a walk and watch the beauty. But it’s fake. So the first part is enough.

A beautiful place showing the practice of ancient paper making. Lots of little shops selling souvenirs tucked amongst the gardens, and a stream running along which is used to power several waterwheels.
