BAT TRANG VILLAGE
Bat Trang village, a craft village 15km north of Hanoi, is famous in Vietnam and indeed throughout the world for its pottery and crafts.
According to legend, Bat Trang village dates back more than a thousand years, founded in the 11th Century by a group of Ly Thai To King dynasty artisans who moved from Ninh Binh (old capital at that time) to the new capital Thang Long (Hanoi) setting up shops to produce bricks and ceramics for the king’s palaces.
