A "doppa" is a traditional headwear commonly worn in parts of Central Asia, particularly in Tajikistan and Uzbekistan. It is typically made from cotton or wool and features intricate embroidery or patterns. The design can vary by region, with some doppas being more ornate than others. Doppa serves both practical and cultural purposes. It provides warmth and protection from the sun, while also symbolizing cultural identity and heritage. In many communities, wearing a doppa is a sign of respect and is often associated with various social and religious occasions.
