Hava Rattan

The workshop typically takes place at Gà Phê – 20 Ngõ 7 Thái Hà, and is open to anyone aged 8 and up. It’s a creative, family-friendly activity where you’ll learn how to balance the dragonfly’s wings, decorate it with your own artistic flair, and take home a piece of Vietnamese heritage. The vibe is relaxed and joyful, with a focus on preserving cultural values through play and creativity. Hava Rattan – Bamboo Dragonfly Workshop is a delightful hands-on experience hosted by Hava Workshop in Hanoi, designed to reconnect participants with the charm of traditional Vietnamese craft. In this session, you’ll get to assemble and paint your own bamboo dragonfly, a nostalgic toy that balances delicately on your fingertip—once a childhood favorite across generations. If you’re looking for a weekend activity that’s both meaningful and fun—or a unique gift idea—this workshop is a lovely way to slow down and make something with your hands. Want me to help you plan a visit or find similar craft experiences in Hanoi? I’ve got a few more tucked away like paintbrushes in a mason jar.
