Step into the world of traditional Vietnamese incense making during this hands-on workshop in Hội An. Guided by friendly local artisans, you’ll discover the cultural and spiritual role of incense in Vietnamese life while learning each step of this centuries-old craft.
Begin with a short introduction to the history and symbolism of incense, then watch artisans demonstrate the traditional methods still used today. You’ll dye incense sticks in vivid colors, mix and knead natural incense powder, and try your hand at rolling incense either by hand or with a traditional foot-powered rolling machine.
You’ll also explore the significance of Agarwood (Trầm) in Vietnamese culture. Learn how this precious material is used in rituals and daily life before crafting your own Agarwood incense pieces with your instructor.
To finish, visit the display area featuring different types of Vietnamese incense, where you can smell and compare various scents. You’ll take home your own handmade creations—including colored incense sticks and Agarwood incense—as meaningful, personalized souvenirs.
Depending on workshop conditions, you may create the Agarwood cones before making the incense sticks.
