8 Trần Cao Vân - The residents of Hoi An hold the belief that suspending lanterns outside their homes invites prosperity, joy, and affluence into their lives.
To begin, you’ll have the opportunity to savor our herbal tea while listening to an expert discuss the heritage and cultural significance of Hoi An Lanterns….
Our Lanterns are crafted from silk and bamboo, available in a variety of forms including lotus, diamond, sunrise, and sunset.
The comprehensive 11-step process to create your own lantern is as follows:
Step 1: Fasten 12 bamboo rods using wire thread
Step 2 and 3: Mold the rods into either a sunrise (inverted triangle) or sunset (triangle) shape
Step 4: Place the bamboo rods onto a hanger and fix them in place with thread
Step 5: Choose your preferred silk and hue
Step 6: Apply adhesive and wait for it to set
Step 7: Position the silk and stretch it to envelop the rods
Step 8: Encase the sides completely with silk
Step 9: Adorn the top and bottom of the hanger with silk strips
Step 10: Pick out a tassel for the base of the lantern
Step 11: Complete! You can collapse your lantern and pack it in your luggage to take home
Additionally, the expert will craft an extra lantern for you as a unique token of appreciation at the conclusion of the workshop.

Have fun making beautiful lanterns - Recommendation - We really liked the lantern workshop! The team was super nice and fun. Crafting wasn’t too complicated, but it takes some dexterity and patience to do it properly. But we were always helped with this. In the afternoon it got a bit hustle and bustle, as new groups kept coming. But we enjoyed it a lot and we take beautiful lanterns home.
