Tho Ha Handicaft Village - Private Hanoi Photo Tour

Explore one of Northern Vietnam’s best-preserved traditional handicraft villages on this unique half-day photo adventure. We head out to Tho Ha, a riverside village renowned for its charming ancient architecture and production of rice paper pancakes.The local ferry crossing to this village is like a journey back in time. The village retains mud-brick houses and winding, narrow alleyways typical of the old Red River Delta, among which residents spread out their rice paper to dry. We’ll also be exploring the village workshops, where locals produce a variety of customary rice products. In the village and markets you’ll be able to capture wide angles, with frames full of activity in every corner, exploring various compositions. The workshops and alleyways are dark and moody, and use of natural lighting can create a fantastic atmosphere. Mixing with the villagers and craftsmen also offers portraits and a cultural perspective not possible on your typical tour.
