< p > Anyone who has drank tea in Petra or ate < a href = "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mansaf" > mansaf< / a > in Wadi Rum will quickly recognize the unique fabric adorning traditional Bedouin tents in Jordan. These colorful designs are commonly used across the Arabian Peninsula and beyond, from Syria and Iraq in the north to the United Arab Emirates and Oman in the southeast. American musician Cardi B even featured some in the 2017 music video for her song < a href = "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEGccV-NOm8" > Bodak Yellow< / a > !< / p >

This cheap and durable fabric makes a great souvenir or gift for friends and family back home ’ t changed since the times of the < em > silk road< / em > ! Unfortunately, one shopkeeper told me that this fabric used to be made exclusively in Aleppo, but production has moved to China since the start of the Syrian civil war in 2011.< / p >
