In Gjirokastra is being held this weekend “Qilim Fest”, a spectacle of carpets and motifs that have covered the cobblestones, public demonstrations of the tradition of working in the loom, accompanied by various music corners of polyphony, instrumental music and live nightlife groups .
Some of the carpets exhibited in the bazaar have been realized since the beginning of the last century as part of a tradition as old as the city. The realization of loom work has been challenged in recent decades by the lack of raw materials, the lack of newcomers to the profession, and the competition from manufactured products.
Hundreds of visitors who explore Gjirokastra on weekends but also foreign groups became part of the event, while the evening culminated with the music of Edea Demaliaj & Band.
Gjirokastra is expected to have a season comparable to 2019 this year, while the feeds of thematic events such as the unveiling of carpets tend to increase the quality of the tourist offer and at the same time draw attention to the protection of local tradition and local tourism product.
