Amarapura, once known as the 'City of Immortality', capital of the Burmese kingdom and seat of the 'Konbaung tradition' from 1783 A.D. to 1859/60 A.D. is found exactly 11 kilometers/7 miles south of Mandalay. Here, were each second house is said to have no less than one weaving machine is, among others, Burma's most bubbly and lovely apparel, the formal 'longyi', 'A-Cheik' htamain (for lady) and 'A-Cheick' pasoe (for men), woven from silk. 'A-Cheicks' are materials that are effortlessly conspicuous by their unpredictable weaving-designs that make up their profoundly alluring and muddled outlines. The silk and cotton weavers from Amarapura are well known all through Burma. Their bright top notch materials/garments in a wide range of plans and shading sets both customary and present day are in solid request and to be had all over the place in the nation.

Another focal point of Burma's weaving industry is the Inlay Lake. The fabrics created here too are regularly from silk. The procedure utilized by the Inlay weavers is an age-old one, called 'Ikat'. As a rule, the strings are colored before the weaving procedure in that they are bound firmly together and inundated into a coloring shower for every shading independently. Be that as it may, the Inlay fabric is made in a marginally diverse manner. While the typical method for coloring is to color the strings independently, i.e. every one has a different shading, the "Intha"s" approach to color the strings is to paint the hues on the strings. The upside of this strategy is that it doesn't require a retying of the strings of every individual shading utilized.
