Hoa Mai Lantern Shop
Description
A lantern shop near the market that runs hands-on making sessions for individuals and groups up to at least ten people. You pick your fabric, follow along with one of the staff (ask for Lanh or Lan – they’re both patient and will tell you honestly when you’re about to make a bad design choice), and walk out an hour later with something you actually made yourself.
The fabric selection is wide enough to keep you busy choosing for a while. Prices are fair, and the staff have a reputation for going out of their way – one reviewer had a custom color made on the spot at half the price quoted elsewhere.
This suits people who want a souvenir with some effort behind it rather than something grabbed off a shelf. The session runs 30 to 60 minutes depending on how focused you stay.
Highlights
- Can handle groups of 10 or more without feeling rushed
- Good fabric variety and design options for customization
- Fair prices for what you get - competitive with other shops in the area
- At least one reviewer found the fabric selection slightly limited (though most disagreed)
