Thanh Ha Pottery Village
Thanh Ha is a centuries-old pottery-making village where local artisans still hand-throw terracotta pots, figurines, and decorative pieces using traditional techniques passed down through generations. A small outdoor park within the village displays miniature versions of famous world landmarks made from local clay, and visitors can typically try the potter's wheel themselves under a craftsperson's guidance.
It's a relaxed, low-key stop that works well as a half-day break from the Ancient Town's crowds, and a good place to pick up handmade ceramics directly from the makers.
