The story

Hanoi Craft Village Tourism and Gastronomy Festival in Hanoi

The Hanoi Craft Village Tourism and Gastronomy Festival is a Hanoi city tourism department event pairing the capital's traditional craft villages with its culinary scene. The most recent edition ran at the Tay Ho Creative Cultural Space, drawing over 30,000 visitors to nearly 100 booths across roughly 5,000 square meters of craft, food, and trade-connection displays.

Hanoi's outlying craft villages, lang nghe in Vietnamese, have specialized in single trades for generations: Bat Trang for ceramics, Van Phuc for silk, other villages for lacquerware, bronze casting, or conical hats.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The festival's premise is connective rather than purely ornamental: it exists to link artisans from Hanoi's outlying craft villages directly with businesses and visitors, rather than simply displaying finished goods

02

The mystery stays covered

Organizers structure the grounds into themed zones, including a Craft Village and Trade Street Tourism space that showcases products from named craft villages alongside food vendors, so a single walk-through covers both a lacquerware workshop demonstration and a tasting stall

03

The city starts moving

Held on the shores of Tay Ho (West Lake), it also uses one of Hanoi's most visited lakeside districts as its stage, positioning the festival as a bridge between rural handicraft supply chains and city-based tourism and retail demand
