Описание: The weaving village of Assam | Sualkuchi Assam silk । Silk hub of North East #sualkuchi

At a distance of 30 km from Guwahati, Sualkuchi, village in the northern bank of the river Brahmaputra is the center of Assam’s textile production, which has earned it the name of Manchester of India. The weaver’s village specializes in mainly two types of silk, Muga silk and Pat silk. Indigenous items such as mekhela chadors, and gamosas made of these materials are the famous produces in the country. It has been declared as a Handloom Heritage Village, and thus is steadily growing up as an important tourist spot in Assam.

Often called as 'Manchester of Assam', Sualkuchi is one of the largest weaving villages in the world as it has large number of cottage handloom industries. The weaving tradition in this hamlet was started in 11th century when king Dharma Pal of the Pala dynasty, sponsored the craft and brought 26 weaving families from Tantikuchi to Sualkuchi. Later, Sualkuchi emerged as a complete silk weaving town by the 17th century AD under the rule of Ahom kings.

This picturesque village is a haven for silk fabrics ranging from the golden Muga to the ivory white 'Pat' and the light beige 'Eri' or 'Endi' silks. Out of which, Muga & Eri, also known as Ahimsa Silk are native only to Assam. The village has around 30,000 functional weaving looms, and holds the record of producing nearly six million meters of Pat and Muga Silk annually. Every house has atleast one adept hand called the Xipini, who is the main weaver of the house.

The streets of Sualkuchi are lined by numerous silk shops, selling variants of traditional, native silk with the blended ones. People from far corners of the state have thronged the village for their choice of silk products.
