The cups, jars, bowls and pots crafted here are exported all over the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By using a variety of burning, baking and heat modulations can results in the production of different colored products, from the bright pinks to deep blacks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These techniques demonstrate what skilled craftsmen the people of Thanh Ha truly are. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As well as this the bricks as tiles which are produced here are extremely sought after in Vietnam.

The whole time we were there we only saw a handful of other people. This was mostly just couples trying to kill a few hours in the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanh Ha is a beautiful village to walk around, with the clay buildings and brightly colored doors I had my camera out the entire time. There were plenty of smiles from the locals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Though, like the majority of places in Vietnam it always felt like someone was constantly trying to sell us something. Whether that&#8217;s painting some pottery or purchasing a cup people were trying to get us into their houses and shops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There were a couple of occasions which we felt a bit more comfortable and were genuinely interested in what the locals were doing, so we did go inside and chat with them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One front yard was even filled with hundreds of the same clay bowls so we went inside and watched two ladies make them. One span the machine with her foot and the other shaped the clay. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also had a quick go at it as well, but to say I was bad would be a massive understatement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall it was a good way to kill some time and get away from the busy roads of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.backpackerswanderlust.com\/backpacking-hoi-an-itinerary\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hoi An<\/a>. The opportunities to interact with the locals and learn about their livelihood was interesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, if I were to visit again I would certainly see the Terracotta Park as well!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"798\" src=\"https:\/\/www.backpackerswanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/DSC_0432-min-min-min.jpg\" alt=\"girl spinning pottery in thanh ha pottery village hoi an\" class=\"wp-image-5569\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.backpackerswanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/DSC_0432-min-min-min.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.backpackerswanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/DSC_0432-min-min-min-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.backpackerswanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/DSC_0432-min-min-min-700x466.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.backpackerswanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/DSC_0432-min-min-min-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.backpackerswanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/DSC_0432-min-min-min-200x133.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.backpackerswanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/DSC_0432-min-min-min-400x266.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.backpackerswanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/DSC_0432-min-min-min-600x399.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.backpackerswanderlust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/DSC_0432-min-min-min-800x532.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n<div data-gyg-widget=\"auto\" data-gyg-partner-id=\"66O8EST\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:36px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background has-medium-font-size\" style=\"background-color:#ffa03b7a\">\ud83d\ude97 <strong>How I Book Cheap Transport In Vietnam: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baolau.vn\/en\/results?source=9719&amp;transports=&amp;origin_id=town-37&amp;origin=Hanoi&amp;origin_town=HANOI&amp;origin_town_lang=HANOI&amp;origin_type=town&amp;destination=Ho+Chi+Minh&amp;destination_id=town-79&amp;destination_town=HO+CHI+MINH&amp;destination_town_lang=HO+CHI+MINH&amp;destination_type=town\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Baolau<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/12go.com\/?z=703961\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">12.Go Asia<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Any Questions?
