Sew Your Own Trip: Carpet Tour

5 days / 4 nights

 

220 USD

 The Azerbaijani carpet has incorporated all the many-colored nature of Azerbaijan - the blue of the sky and the green of forests, dense shadows on the slopes of the mountains and the whiteness of snowy peaks. The magically iridescent colors of the carpet absorbed the ruby ​​brightness of pomegranate seeds and the golden radiance of quince, copper of saffron and lilac shades of grapes. An inexhaustible interweaving of patterns, a flight of creative imagination and high craftsmanship - this is what an Azerbaijani carpet is.
