Overview

Learn how to make a foldable lantern and hear about this important part of Hoi An's cultural heritage from your instructor. Bring home your very own hand-made souvenir.

Hoi An is renowned for its beautiful Old Town, decorated by a colourful array of hanging lanterns. A rich history as a trading port makes Hoi An a mecca for all kinds of traditional Vietnamese handicraft and manufacturing. None more so than lantern making. If you are looking for an interactive experience with locals whilst in town, it’s hard to look past a lantern making workshop. These workshops are an amazing and fun way to learn about Vietnamese culture and traditional craft techniques. You finish the session with a newly earned talent and a souvenir that holds infinitely more memories than any store bought lantern ever would.
