In the bustling heart of Central Vietnam, Da Nang offers more than stunning beaches and vibrant street food — it provides unique opportunities to connect with local craftsmanship. One such experience is the Silver Ring-Making Workshop, where you’ll learn traditional silversmithing from an experienced artisan, all within a cozy studio environment. For $63 per person, in about three hours, you’re invited to design and craft your very own silver ring.

What makes this experience stand out? First, the close-up access to real silversmithing tools — hammer, shaping blocks, polishing wheels — gives you a genuine sense of the craft. Second, the personal guidance from a skilled instructor ensures even total beginners can leave with a ring they’re proud of.

A possible consideration? It’s a relatively short workshop — three hours — so if you’re seeking an in-depth, multi-day course, this might not fully satisfy that craving. However, for those wanting a quick, creative activity that results in a meaningful keepsake, this ticks many boxes.

This workshop is especially suited for travelers who enjoy hands-on experiences, those interested in local crafts, or anyone celebrating a special occasion like an anniversary or a romantic weekend. If you’re craving a personal, memorable souvenir that carries a story, this is a wonderful choice.
