The Bat Trang ceramics village, a 500-year-old village, is located about 10 km northeast of Hanoi on the left bank of the Red River. Bat Trang ceramics are truly the pride of Vietnam. 
According to Vietnam's famous history book, Dai Viet Su Ky Toan Thu, the name of Bat or Bat Trang Commune was first known in 1352. However, unofficial records said that in the Ly dynasty (1010-1225), villagers from Bo Bat commune in Ninh Binh Province resettled in this area and called it Bat Trang Commune.
The villagers chose the area because they found porcelain clay - a good material to produce high quality porcelain and ceramics. The land is also easy to access by a water way as it lies next to the Nhi or Hong (Red) River.
Bat Trang ceramics were sought for by people of all walks of life from royal families in Thang Long (Hanoi) city to farmers. Since the 15th century, ceramic house-utensils made by the Bat Trang village were also among the tributes to Chinese kings.
