Description

Join a relaxing, hands-on handicraft workshop just a few steps from Hanoi’s Temple of Literature — the city’s most iconic cultural site. Here, you’ll discover the art of traditional Vietnamese crafts and create your own handmade souvenir with a local artisan. Before booking, simply choose the craft you’d like to make by selecting the right option on GetYourGuide — a Dó paper painting, an eggshell lacquer painting, or a Dó paper lantern. Dó paper, once used exclusively for royal documents in Vietnam’s Imperial Court, is known for its strength, softness, and timeless beauty. Guided by a skilled craftsman, you’ll learn how this unique material is made and turn it into your own meaningful artwork. The workshop takes place in a charming wooden house filled with natural light, gentle local music, and the warm scent of paper and lacquer. Don’t worry if you’ve never crafted before — your instructor will walk you through every step in a friendly, easy-to-follow way. Enjoy beautiful view as you work in a peaceful, air-conditioned space. Feel free to take photos, chat with your artisan, and let creativity flow at your own pace. After finishing your piece, you can take a short walk to visit the Temple of Literature right nearby — a perfect cultural continuation to your creative morning or afternoon. You’ll leave with your own handmade creation — a beautiful, meaningful souvenir of Vietnamese artistry and your time in Hanoi.
