Rugs of various sizes and colors that seem to endlessly stretch across the fields have created a remarkable patchwork of colors. /VCG Photo

About 15 workers were spotted placing around 7,000 carpets on the fields, squeezing the old woven rugs to let them dry under the sun. /VCG Photo

Workers usually wait about a month before taking the carpets from the fields and dusting them again. They can earn about 60 lira (10 U.S. dollars) a day. /VCG Photo
