Discover the full silk village experience at Hoa Lu Silk Loom Workshop in Ninh Binh, where traditional Vietnamese silk craftsmanship, local culture, and village flavors come together in one meaningful journey.

Your experience begins with a guided visit to the mulberry garden, where you will learn how mulberry leaves are grown and harvested to feed silkworms. You will have the chance to feed the silkworms yourself, observe their life cycle, and see how delicate silk cocoons are created.

Next, step into the silk-making workshop to discover how cocoons are transformed into silk thread. Local artisans will introduce you to traditional silk reeling, thread spinning, and hand-weaving techniques using wooden tools and traditional looms. You will see how each stage of silk-making requires patience, precision, and skilled hands.

After learning about the silk process, join a hands-on craft activity guided by a local artisan. You will work with premium silk material, take part in a hand-embroidery experience, and create your own handmade silk souvenir to bring home.

The journey continues with a visit to the design studio and showroom, where you can see handmade silk bedding, fashion items, embroidered products, and local craft souvenirs. This is where traditional techniques are transformed into modern, high-quality silk products.

You will also enjoy a complimentary local mulberry drink, a special flavor connected to the silk village.

To complete the experience, join a local cooking class and learn how to prepare simple traditional dishes such as Vietnamese spring rolls and mulberry leaf omelet. After cooking, sit down and enjoy an authentic Silk Village meal made with fresh local ingredients. Some seasonal dishes may include crispy silkworm pupae, a local specialty.

More than a workshop, this tour offers a deeper connection with the heritage of Hoa Lu, the daily life of local artisans, and the warm flavors of a Vietnamese craft village.
