Shape bamboo, choose your silk and create a traditional lantern with patient, hands-on guidance from Lynn’s team.
More than a souvenir
Step away from the busy streets and into a calm, air-conditioned studio where Vietnamese craft traditions come to life.
Our friendly makers guide you one step at a time. No experience is needed, and every finished lantern folds flat to fit easily into your suitcase.

Local guidance
The workshop is run by a local team of lantern artisans and experienced makers who guide guests directly at the table.
This is a practical class, not just a demonstration. You choose the shape and fabric, then learn each step with patient help from the team. Depending on your class, you can decorate a prepared frame or build the bamboo structure yourself—and leave with a foldable lantern made by your own hands.
