Cultural Tourism Resource

The traditional craft of making conical hats in Gia Thanh has a history of nearly 100 years. Each conical hat not only contributes to preserving the traditional cultural identity of the craft village but also gains recognition through experiential tourism activities. The lightweight, durable, and elegantly white conical hats from Gia Thanh have become well-known among both domestic and international tourists.

However, to fully leverage the value of the craft village, more active contributions are needed, not only from the craft village itself but also from all social resources. This includes initiatives that focus on promoting and introducing the craft through activities such as tourism, craft village fairs, and trade exchanges.

The residents of Gia Thanh tirelessly work day and night, dedicating themselves to perfecting each conical hat. Their efforts add grace to the product, infused with the essence of the homeland. The Gia Thanh conical hat plays a significant role in preserving the traditional cultural identity of the village, representing a distinctive product of the hilly forested region with tea plantations.

In recent years, the locality has developed and promoted attractive tourism products, especially craft village tourism, which involves exploring and experiencing the local culture. This approach is identified not only as an appealing aspect for tourists but also as a means to enhance the local economic value. Moreover, it serves the purpose of preserving and conserving traditional crafts and cultural values. The Gia Thanh Conical Hat Craft Village in Rền hamlet, Gia Thanh commune, has become a popular destination, particularly for international tourists. These conical hats have made their way across the country through the tourism promotion programs of Phú Thọ Province, chosen by tourists as souvenirs and gifts.
