Traditional Vietnamese Mat Weaving

vespaadventures...
Meet Thang. She has lived in Hoi An, Central Vietnam, her whole life. Her and her family have been weaving Vietnamese sleeping mats for generations. They use this craft as a source of extra income. On a typical day, the family can make up to 3 beautiful mats to sell at the markets.
See how these mats are made, and even try making them yourself on either of our countryside Vespa Adventures in Hoi An, Central Vietnam.
