Lan Rung brocade craft village – Preserving cultural identity, creating livelihoods
Lao Cai – a land where the cultural colors of ethnic minorities blend together – is also home to many unique traditional craft villages. In Sa Pa, the Lan Rung brocade embroidery village has diligently preserved and promoted the traditional craft of brocade embroidery for over 20 years—a craft closely tied to skilled hands and a refined spirit. The village not only preserves ethnic identity but also taps into tourism potential, creating dual benefits: safeguarding and promoting cultural values while generating socio-economic gains.
