Description

Discover Hanoi’s centuries-old blacksmithing tradition

Step out of Hanoi’s bustling Old Quarter and ride into the heart of tradition. Just 10 km away lies Da Sy Blacksmith Village, a place where fire, steel, and history meet. For more than 500 years, the clang of hammer on anvil has shaped not only knives and tools, but also the soul of this community.

Here, you’ll walk into workshops where sparks fly like firecrackers, watch glowing red metal bend into form, and hear stories of families who have carried on their craft for generations. Under the guidance of a master blacksmith, you’ll even get to try your hand at forging—feeling the weight of the hammer, the heat of the fire, and the pride in creating something with your own hands.

Afterward, wander the knife market, where stalls gleam with blades of every shape and size—each one carrying the mark of its maker. End the journey with a warm cup of green tea, reflecting on how a small village has kept its heritage alive in the modern world.

This is not just a half‑day tour. It’s a living story of Hanoi’s resilience, artistry, and craft.
