Tkachi (Weavers)

The fifth floor of the Tkachi Creative Space is a 2000-square-meter multifunctional area for exhibitions, performances, master classes, lectures, festivals, concerts, fairs and more. The space also includes a small bookshop named for Jorge Luis Borges and a cozy café. The building is named for the Russian word for weavers ("tkachi"). The renovation of this former cotton-spinning and weaving mill was partially completed in 2010. At the moment only the first and fifth floor are in use while the others remain under renovation. On the first floor there are a lot of retail shops where you can buy designer clothes and bags, eye glasses, books and even bicycles.
