Description: Margilan town in Fergana Valley, the Silk Capital of Central Asia. History and present day.
History of Margilan and its silk manufacturing traditions. Margilan : the Silk Capital of Central Asia and 2000 years of glorious history Just like people, cities change over time, and Margilan is now enjoying its renaissance or "second youth". Interestingly enough, no one actually knows the exact meaning of "Margilan" but many agree that it may be a reference to Persian "Marg" which means "green pasture land", and "Lon" which could be the old Persian definition of locality. If we combine those two we'd get exactly that – "A Green Place". Look at the abundance of trees in modern Margilan - it's probably not too far off!
