Museum cochineal "Nochetlikali"

This unusual museum is certainly of interest to anyone interested in nature and craft.

Cochineal is called an absolutely natural dye, which is obtained from dried insects. It is used in various types of industry: in cosmetic (lipad, blush), food (meat, sausage), pharmaceutical (tablet production), textile (tissue dyeing) and so on.

The museum offers an exposition that allows you to find answers to all the questions you could ask about cochineal. The exhibition reveals the production of dye and different shades of color, its application in industry, growing insects, restoring nature and so on. At the final stage of the tour, everyone has the opportunity to paint with cochineal any product.

Also in the museum you can buy dye for your own needs. There are also training sessions on the use of cochineal and master classes on dyeing.
