The last practical day

 Today we visited to Toki saraffon with my coursemates.Now I am going to give some information about Toki Saraffon.

Fast beside the Lyabi-Khauz there stands a dome with a cross-road running under it. Small shops are scattered around it. Once there located one of the largest currency exchanges of Central Asia: merchants from India, China and other countries change their money from money-changers, named the sarrafs. The name of the trading dome originated from them. But several centuries later one can only buy carpets, kerchiefs and other souvenirs here.

Telpak Furushon Trading Dome

A little to the north from Toki-Sarrofon there located the large Telpak Furushon Trading Dome. This is a massive complex having a hexagonal orientation. Under its spherical dome there concentrate shops selling knives, jewelries, music instruments and various remembrances. Next to it there is a medieval blacksmith shop, where one can watch a process of manufacturing knives and other tools. Once the shops were selling a book, that is why the trading dome was called as Kitab-Furushon («kitab» is translated from Uzbek as “book”). Step by step the place of the bookselling was occupied by shops trading headwear and later selling of caps in its turn gave place to souvenir products made by the local craftsmen.
