San Marino is among the oldest republics in the world, and still retains its historical architecture. Perched on the slopes of Monte Titano, the capital, also known as San Marino, is known for its medieval walled old town and cobblestone streets. The Three Towers, castle-like structures dating back to the 11th century, sit atop the nearby peaks of Titano.

According to legend, San Marino was founded in the 4th century by a Catholic stonemason named Marinus who sought refuge in the Dalmatia. It is perhaps one of the oldest independent republics in the world. San Marino has a developed industrial, service, and tourism-based economy . Its economy is primarily based on traditional resources (grapes, building stone), postage stamp issuance, and especially tourism. The main service and industrial sectors include banking, textiles, electronics, and ceramics.

Designer Minh Hanh said: “I really love the name 'Republic of Great Peace,' and it's no coincidence that San Marino, the smallest country in the world, has preserved its historical values and independence while nestled within Italy. With such a spirit, I already admire it even before visiting, and I feel that anyone who steps into San Marino will find peace. I want to share with the world the timeless beauty of Vietnamese silk if we can express our own contemporary identity.”
