Hoi An Foldable Lantern-Making Class Experience
Make your own way to the artisan’s workshop in Hoi An’s Cam Pho district in time for your morning or afternoon lantern-making class. You’ll be greeted by your host, a master lantern-maker, and offered some traditional herbal tea as you learn about the history and cultural traditions of Vietnamese silk lanterns. Next, it’s time to get hands-on as you learn the ancient art of lantern-making. Choose a lotus, diamond, sunrise, or sunset shape for your lantern, then learn how to assemble the 12 bamboo stakes and attach wire thread to create the desired shape. Finally, insert the bamboo stakes into a lantern hanger, then stretch your chosen silks around the lantern and add your choice of tassel to complete your lantern. At the end of the class, take home your handmade lantern as a souvenir. Locals believe that hanging them in front of their house brings luck, happiness, and wealth.
