Xưởng sản xuất lồng đèn Hội An_ lồng đèn Thanh Trúc

Thanh Trúc is a working lantern workshop on the outskirts of the old town where you can either buy finished lanterns or sit down and make one yourself. The making sessions are low-key and hands-on – no tourist theater, just the actual craft with someone who knows it well and has patience for slow learners (and kids).

The buying side is worth your time too. Wide range of styles, fair prices, and the staff will actually help you pick something rather than just waving at the wall. Vietnamese reviewers specifically call out the durability, which matters if you’re trying to get a lantern home in one piece.

This is a factory space, so it’s spacious and airy rather than the cramped souvenir-shop experience you get on Tran Phu. Bring cash and allow more time than you think you need if you’re doing the workshop.
