materials. Products at Mekong Quilts come from more than 300 women employed in rural districts in Vietnam and Cambodia. About half of every VND 20,000 spent in the shop returns to the villages. Bowls, dishes, and colourful patchwork quilts range anywhere from about VND 50,000 to VND 400,000. The shop also produces bikes constructed with bamboo from the forests of Tanh Linh, where a team works an average of
50 hours to make a bike (VND 3,600,000-VND 8,700,000). If you’re curious, expats and tourists can inquire about the shop’s free bamboo bike rental offer, a unique way to explore the city.
