      A Day Off The Beaten Track

      Weโ€™ll start at the stunning Quแบฃng Phรบ Cแบงu village as very recently seen on National Geographic. Incense sticks are lit in temples & local houses everywhere in Vietnam... find out why and take in the beauty of the bamboo sticks lying in the streets to dry. 


      Not only that, but weโ€™ll take you to the factory that mass produces incense sticks to export around Vietnam and other areas of South East Asia. Bring your cameras because today is going to be a colorful day.

      NOTE: If it does rain then there may not be as many on show outside but no stress... we have a backup ?๏ธ


      Take a break and indulge in what will more than likely be your best meal in Vietnam. Finish up with some local tea (or a beer) before we move on to the other handicraft villagesโ€ฆ itโ€™s time to get hands on ?


      Youโ€™ve seen the locals wearing the traditional cone-shaped leaf hats right? How could you not have? Have a go at weaving a Non-La yourself in Chuong Village. 


      From drying the palm leaves in the sun, ironing them (believe it or not), hand stitching the leaves together, and tying on the strap... youโ€™ll learn all the steps to making them from start to finish.


      Absolutely no pressure but youโ€™ll be able to buy a hat here much more beautiful and cheaper than you can in the City.


      Next up is our final stop at Vac Village, the home to bird cage making, with over 100 households involved in carving and piecing together beautiful homes for the songbirds of Vietnam.


      This last village will be a quick stop on route back to Hanoi after a day full of culture, good food, and local smiles ?
