Isfahan - art and culture in an oasis city
In no oasis city of the East do arts and crafts enter into such a lively connection as in Isfahan. Up to the Sava valley 500 years ago, some masters return their craftsmanship. The old craft can be found again for example at Kachelfayence makers is used for the restoration of old domes,Silk carpet weavers, fabric printers using old techniques, gold thread workers working on a 400-year-old machine and a brocade weaver working on his hand-drawn loom.
The works that emerge suggest that the time of earlier epochs had a different meaning. The sumptuousness comes through these craftsmanship to full advantage and one suspects to be able to breathe the luxury of this magnificent city of culture.
The architecture of Isfahan in all its ornamental splendor is definitely worth a visit.
