Traditional ceramic production methods in Thanh Ha pottery village.

Thanh Hà pottery village in Hội An is known for its traditional ceramic production methods. This over 500-year-old craft village in Hội An still maintains hand shaping, foot pedal turning, and wood burning, making it a distinctive feature.

Many households in the village still rely on sharpening ceramics to make a living. From generation to generation, the forebears passed on the vocation to their children and grandchildren. The younger generation promotes creativity, discovers new directions for practice and develops markets for ceramic products.

New models, such as Thanh Hà Terracotta Park, the introduction of ceramic products at fairs, markets, events, and online sales, have greatly increased the visibility of traditional artisan villages to domestic and international customers.

Hội An has joined the UNESCO Creative Cities Network, with many initiatives and projects to be implemented shortly, promising that craft villages, especially Thanh Hà pottery village, will prosper in the future.
