What To Expect

Van Phuc Silk Village

We will pick you up from your hotel for a 45-minute car ride heading North-West of Ha Noi to Van Phuc Silk Village. This well-known village is traditionally associated with silk weaving in Ha Dong. The craft of silk weaving was started over 1000 years ago in Van Phuc and remains a rich tradition to this day.
Then, we will visit the families for whom silk production is a method of earning for living. Watch as we learn the stages of producing handmade silk: from spinning and gluing, through weaving and finishing of the silk wares. Afterwards, we will visit the shrines of the village where the first masters are worshipped. The products are always decorated with the symmetrical patterns. The decorated features are soft, generous and delicate. Most patterns are inspired from daily objects, animals, and other existing shapes. Therefore, Van Phuc silks attract not only the Vietnamese but also tourists.
