Hanoi Tò He Workshop – Crafting Culture by Hand

Tucked away in a quiet corner of Hanoi, the traditional craft of Tò He offers a hands-on journey into the heart of Vietnamese folk culture. Made from colorful glutinous rice powder, these charming figurines—once simple toys—now carry stories, joy, and heritage shaped by loving hands.

This experience invites guests of all ages to become artisans for a day. Under the gentle guidance of a local craftsman, you’ll shape your own animals, flowers, or legendary characters, learning not only how Tò He is made, but why it has endured through centuries. It’s an activity especially perfect for families, where children can explore creativity while adults rediscover the beauty of tradition.

More than just crafting, it’s a moment to slow down, to laugh together, and to bring home not just a souvenir—but a shared memory steeped in cultural warmth.
