Van Phuc Village Located about 10km southwest of Hanoi, Van Phuc Silk Village is famous for silk weaving for thousands of years and was considered the number one in Indochina during the French colonial period. The silk from Van Phuc Village is an animal fiber extracted from silkworm cocoons, so it has an elegant luster on the surface and a soft fabric. It is known for its wide variety, beauty, and durability. Silk products are commonly used in the lives of Vietnamese people, but they have also become the subject of poetry and paintings.
