• Day 3 lunch then silk factory

    September 15, 2024 in China ⋅ 🌬 33 °C

    Well it has to be Chinese for lunch ha ha , the on to visit a silk factory, it was really interesting, we were shown the stages of the silkworm, through to the spinning of the silk and I was amazed at how strong the silk thread is, then we watched it being turned into a continental quilt and other yarn being used for other silk items, absolutely fascinating and it's no wonder silk products are so dear, virtually everything is done by hand.
