Phuoc Tich pottery - A remarkable asset of Hue royal ceramics

For over five centuries, Phuoc Tich village in Phong Dien district, Thua Thien Hue province, has been renowned throughout the central region for its remarkable pottery. It not only crafts ceramic household items but also boasts a plethora of exquisitely artistic pieces that were once commissioned for the royal palace of the Nguyen Dynasty (1802-1945).
