Praised and adored for its smooth characteristics and beautiful patterns, silk has been long one of the main attributes to create clothing, scarfs and used into interior design in many hotels around Cambodia. This protein-fibre material and its applications into textile have been long the base for a stable industry, where local artisans used their weaving skills on looms for clothing royalties and dignitaries in the past. Its techniques and breeding the yellow silkworms are time-honoured traditions and with places such as the Puok Silk Farm, customers can get up and close with the delicate processes to get the raw material in fabrics of the highest quality. • Get the ins and outs of the delicate processes of silk production • Watch how silken thread is spun by local artisans • Admire the work done of a local NGO to keep looms moving • Learn about the ancient Ikan weaving method • See the final products at the farm’s own shop • Transfers from and to your hotel are included.
