Fun experience - The first step is to choose the shape and fabric of the lantern. There are quite a few kinds, so I'm lost. After that, you will create it with guidance. It was more difficult than I thought, but we were able to complete it with help. Not only did we get the experience, we also got some good souvenirs.

Relaxed crafting in a beautiful atmosphere - In the middle of the old town in a nice shop, the crafting takes place with very good, friendly, English-language instructions. With the support provided, the experience of success is almost guaranteed and you take home something unique and valuable in addition to the relaxing crafting experience. I was there twice in total because I liked it so much.

Must do - make lanterns in Hoi An - Super fun experience! With our family spontaneously stepped inside to follow a workshop. Our daughters (11 and 13 years) painted the lanterns, we started working with fabric and glue. You get a good explanation and enough help to leave the house with an original souvenir:-) The lampoons are also folded for you and emerged from our backpacks a few weeks later. Overall super fun activity led by a knowledgeable and very friendly lady!

Fab afternoon activity with teen daughter - My daughter and I loved this activity. The teacher took her time to walk us through material choices, how to make the lantern and then gave us design inspiration. There was plenty of people to help if you needed it. It was a great activity to do together.
