Silk production has a history that spans over a quarter of a century in Nepal. Nepalese Silk comes from the Bi-voltine Silk worm, typically found in the sub-tropical hilly regions, which produces silk of superior quality compared to multi-voltine worms from tropical regions. Sericulture, or the cultivation of silkworms for the production of raw silk, is a major industry in the area. During this tour, visitors will be guided around a large farm dedicated to silkworm rearing, teeming with thousands of black and red Mulberry plants, which happen to be the preferred food of the silkworm. The tour also includes visits to a silkworm habitat, a breeding center, and discussions about the life cycle of Silkworm production. The tour commences with a drive to the farm and wraps up at your hotel.
