This ancient pottery village is located just a channel away from the famous Bát Tràng pottery village, separated by the Bắc Hưng Hải canal. Based on ancient relics excavated in the village, pottery making here has a long history, even predating the Bát Tràng village.
Today, products from Kim Lan pottery are widespread in the market, especially in the domestic ceramic industry, with a variety of items such as jars, vases, pots, bottles, incense holders, cups, plates… Kim Lan is often likened to a princess asleep in the deep forest, quietly nestled between the tranquil land of Hung Yen and the slow-moving flow of the Red River.
