Hello,
Today we will take you to visit the traditional craft village over 600 years old, the Bat Trang pottery village of Hanoi, Vietnam. It has a history dating back to the 14th century and is famous for its high-quality ceramic and pottery products.
We visited a highly renowned production facility here, which is the Hai Mai pottery workshop of artisan Dao Van Hai. Here, we witnessed all stages of the process to make some of the most famous ceramic products in Vietnam.
