Van Phuc Silk Village (Ha Dong) exemplifies the ideal combination of tradition and modernity. Van Phuc silk village, known as the cradle of traditional silk weaving, has elevated the symbol of Ha Dong and the capital of Hanoi to new heights. From delicate silk threads, the artisans of the village have created exquisite silk works, including ceremonial garments for kings and high-end decorative items. Van Phuc silk village has not only met the needs of the market but also contributed to the development of the image of a modern craft village associated with the capital as a result of its continuous development and integration with 4.0 technology. The connecting tours between Thang Long Imperial Citadel and Van Phuc silk village bring the tale of culture and tradition to life for visitors.

In addition to Bat Trang and Van Phuc silk village, Hanoi has several other venerable craft villages, including Phu Vinh rattan and bamboo weaving, Quat Dong embroidery, Xuan La to him, Chuon Ngo pearl mosaic, Chang Son puppet ward, etc. All of these locations have the potential to develop into one-of-a-kind tourist destinations associated with a variety of tourism products that promote sustainable growth.

Continuous innovation in production technology and product design has enabled Bat Trang to become not only a showcase but also a symbol of the OCOP program in the Gia Lam district.

The 2023 Hanoi Tourism Festival was held with the theme "Connecting heritage for tourism development" at the end of March, ushering in a new era of exploiting the capital's tourism potential. The connection between Thang Long Imperial Citadel and craft villages is a breakthrough that allows visitors to learn about culture and tradition.

Hanoi has utilized its inherent qualities to cultivate a distinctive and engaging image in the minds of tourists. These initiatives are not merely a tourism industry development; they also embody the spirit of preserving and transmitting traditional Vietnamese values.
