Precious Heritage by Rehahn, Hoi An

Amazingly interesting and beautiful museum. Definitely worth a visit! The pictures are gorgeous and the stories are super interesting. If you travel through/visit Vietnam this is a MUST-do to get to know something about their traditional culture. Just go :)

A warm local museum with various Vietnamese culture collection. It worth those who is interested in Vietnamese minority to visit. There's a lot art, cultural, handmade and photography collection, which make people impressive. Meanwhile, the museum also has pretty postcard, and each of it is 25k VND.

A beautiful and very interesting photo/art gallery with a big collection of traditional clothes from some of the 54 ethnic groups in Vietnam. So many stories did the French artist Rehahn capture and they are exhibited here. Its for free and you can buy anything from a postcard to books. I can highly recommend a visit here to learn more about the Vietnamese people..

Possibly my favourite gallery to date. PLEASE include this in your itinerary when you visit, Rehahn seems to have put in an immense amount of work to preserve the history and culture of Vietnam’s ethnic groups. His efforts, evident by the numerous gifts from villagers and village chiefs as well as his personal anecdotes, touched me a lot. The storytelling also makes learning about the ethnic groups a memorable and engaging experience. I have never visited a gallery like this. I meant to visit for 15 minutes to have a look-see but ended up reading every single placard because they drew me in so much.

I went museum in a the last days of December and weather was strange with suddenly raining. However, this is exact destination I would like recommend for everyone, at all. The museum is a collection about Vietnam's ethnic minority. Each traditional clothes owner a story for itself. It could be the last one of a ethnic group and it was gave in sadness, in crying. In contrast, some of costumes was gave as the gifts in happy mood of owner. If you love art and tradition do not miss this place. I think Hoi An Ancient Town is too crowded with souvenir shops, coffee spots and other commercial places. Why should we try a place where help you can know more about Viet Nam for sure. P/s: A advantage of this museum is entrance fee is free. Staff is so friendly and helpfully.
