INCENSE VILLAGE & HAT MAKING VILLAGE & LACQUER ART VILLAGE

Itinerary: 

7:45 - 8:15: Pick up at Old Quarter by tour guide. Begin your adventure in Ha Thai village, renowned for its lacquerware production since the

17th century. Meet a celebrated local artisan who will introduce you to this traditional art

form. Under their expert guidance, you'll have the opportunity to create your own lacquer

painting as a unique souvenir. Next, journey to the 300-year-old Chuong village, famous for its conical hat making. Wander

through the village and, depending on availability, either visit a war veteran to hear personal

stories from the Vietnam War or meet other local artisans to learn about their daily lives. Enjoy a delicious home-cooked lunch prepared by a local female artisan, immersing yourself

in authentic Vietnamese hospitality. After lunch, try your hand at painting your own hat or

join in the hat-making process with guidance from skilled craftspeople. Complete your artisanal tour at the vibrant Quang Phu Cau incense village. Walk through the

village center to observe family-scale incense production. Visit a household specializing in

dyeing incense sticks and capture stunning photos of colorful incense bundles. The experience culminates with a tour of the village's largest incense factory, where you'll

witness the entire production process and gain insights into the lives of rural workers. 17:00 - 17:30: Your journey concludes with a return to Hanoi, with the option to be dropped
