A little south of West Lake, Hangzhou’s Silk Museum traces the history of silk production And cultivation throughout the region. Its displays are labeled in English and Chinese and track the silk process from beginning to end.
You’ll see silkworms happily munching away at mulberry leaves as well as examples of Chinese imperial dress (both original and reproductions and some beautiful weaving. Upstairs there’s an interesting art gallery and a shop, which is a good place to buy lengths of silk as prices are fixed and the quality is guaranteed.
