Hi Guys,

I am looking for paper lantern stores in Sai Gon, the ones like in Hoi An. Do we have any stores like this or any craftmans who make this kind of lanterns in Sg?

The lanterns of Hoi An tourism area are from China.

Well, Vietnamese lanterns are quite simple and not attracting. If you just need to buy paper to make lanterns, it's better for you to check " silk paper.

Since i need lanterns to decorate, so it must be something nice. How about the stores selling small paper lanterns (diameter ~ 10cm) in Sai Gon? It is quite hard to find certain stuffs here

There are many stores along HAI THUONG LAN ONG - few minutes walk from CHOLON BUS STATION.

Use to locate the street.

ChoLon buses leave from Ben Thanh Bus Station, if you don't have wheels.
