Watch craftspeople at wort at this blend of workshop and embroidery atelier stylised to look like a village with a courtyard of its own. Treat this one like a visit to an art gallery, with the added possibility of buying any of the display pieces. Embroidery types range from the more traditional nature and landscapes to portraits – you can even have one embroided of yourself.
Shopping
Apart from the usual knick knacks, some of the items worth seeking out in Nha Trang include clothing (tailoring is relatively big here, and one could get a custom piece made inexpensively), high-quality crafts (such as silk embroidery or pottery), pearl jewellery, and small souvenirs such as tin coffee brewers and beans from farms across Vietnam.
