Ninh Bình: Silk Making Natural Dye and Embroidery

Discover the living silk heritage of Hoa Lu and follow the journey from mulberry leaf to finished silk. Visit the mulberry garden, learn how leaves are grown for silkworms, explore the silkworm-rearing area, and see how cocoons are formed. Continue to the silk-reeling and weaving workshop, where local artisans demonstrate traditional techniques. The highlight is a hands-on craft session: receive your own 100% silk scarf, dye it with colors inspired by natural materials, then learn basic hand embroidery with a local artisan and add your own details. Take the finished silk scarf home as a personal souvenir. Before leaving, visit the design and handicraft area and enjoy a complimentary mulberry drink. This experience is ideal for travelers who want to go beyond sightseeing and take part in traditional silk crafts in Ninh Binh.
