Pottery village of Thanh Ha
PANO - Situated by the romantic Thu Bon River, the pottery village of Thanh Ha is about two kilometers west of the old quarter in Hoi An city, Quang Nam province.
Established in the late 15th century, the village developed along the Hoi An Port.
Its main products are glazed terracotta and enamel products made by skilled artisans using traditional techniques.
The Thanh Ha pottery village, famous for its durable and beautiful pottery products, has become a living museum that provides valuable evidence for researchers and lovers of traditional pottery of Vietnam in particular, and of the Southeast Asian region in general.
