About us 

Established in 1997 and located on Hàng Mành Street in Hanoi’s Old Quarter, MANH CUONG - Vietnamese Traditional Musical Instruments & Gifts Shop offers visitors a unique cultural experience through a diverse collection of traditional Vietnamese musical instruments. Our selection includes instruments often seen on grand stages and in royal performances, such as the Đàn Tranh (zither) and Đàn Tam (three-stringed lute), as well as instruments closely connected to everyday Vietnamese life, such as the Đàn Bầu (monochord) and Đàn Nhị (two-string fiddle). We also showcase a variety of gongs in sizes ranging from 16 to 100 cm. Among them, our exclusive 8-note gong set, available only at our shop, is especially distinctive and can be customized to suit your preferences.

At MANH CUONG shop, we warmly welcome all visitors to explore and select from our collection of authentic traditional instruments. We are always happy to offer guidance to those looking for a meaningful souvenir—one that beautifully reflects Vietnam’s rich history and cultural heritage at first sight.

In addition, our shop is housed in a traditional tube house, a characteristic architectural style of Hanoi’s Old Quarter. This unique feature has attracted many tourists for sightseeing and photography, and some have affectionately called it “The Smallest House on the Street.” We would be delighted to welcome you to 1B Hàng Mành street, Hoàn Kiếm ward, Hanoi, Vietnam, where you can experience a distinctive part of local culture firsthand.

If possible, we would also greatly appreciate it if you could use the hashtags #manhcuong1b or #manhcuongshop in your public social media posts. This helps us connect with others who share a love for traditional Vietnamese culture and allows us to spread the value and experiences that MANH CUONG brings to visitors.

Thank you, and we look forward to welcoming you to MANH CUONG - Vietnamese Traditional Musical Instruments & Gifts Shop.
