Renowned for its unique skills, Asia is the crucible of many crafts, based on the use of local materials such as silk and leather. Passed down over generations, and adapting to modern growth, they help to build identities and cultures, which they continue to nourish. These escapades showcase the arts and crafts of each of our destinations. Let us surprise you!
Markers of cultural identity
Arts and crafts have historically been at the heart of Vietnamese life. Today, more than ever, they are a means of preserving regional differences within a unified national history, while respecting ancestral techniques handed down from generation to generation. From dance and ceramics to architecture and acrobatics, our tours throughout Vietnam highlight regional identities and their place in the country’s culture.
Showcasing a culture
Thailand is world-renowned for its rich and original handicrafts, which are a key element in the dissemination of its culture. Thanks to traditional techniques and an abundance of quality materials, Thailand has been able to preserve and improve its arts and crafts. Our escapades offer a complete immersion in its history and culture.
Making everyday life more beautiful
Laotian arts and crafts are renowned for their quality and diversity, but also for their deep-rooted involvement in the daily lives of the country’s inhabitants. The pride of the country, they have historically improved the lives of Laotians economically, socially and culturally. Our escapade gives us an opportunity to delve into the country’s know-how, and to discover dances, frescoes, weaving and traditional ‘Saa’ paper-making, all crafts at the heart of the local way of life, and whose diversity mirrors the many ethnic groups that make up the country.
The Korean splits
More faithful than ever to its traditions and heritage, South Korea is nonetheless constantly modernising. It is in this apparent paradox that a formidable diversity of arts, techniques and skills nestles. As vectors of culture and identity, they are part of the ‘Korean wave’ that is now sweeping the world. Through visits to modern art museums, craft workshops, districts of remarkable architecture and an introduction to calligraphy, our escapade will reveal the secrets of delicate, precise and refined design, the great pride of Korea.
The embodiment of the sacred
Remnants of an immense Khmer civilisation, Cambodian arts and crafts are handed down from generation to generation, a precious secret that must be guarded. Surrounded by mystery and spirituality, they possess a great attractive force, true incarnations of the sacred on this earth. From the powerful silence of Angkor, to the bewitching dances of the royal ballet, via the weaving of traditional golden silk, immerse yourself in the heritage of a civilisation whose soul endures through time.
