Choa village in Bac Ninh province is famous for its making of incense tradition. The incense stick from here has a shiny black color and a unique aroma that is rarely found anywhere else.
After hundreds of years making incense, the people of Choa village have summed up and passed on their knowledge of making incense that is extremely sophisticated and meticulous.
Previously, the process of making incense sticks was done by hand. But this job requires a high degree of precision so the number of incense sticks an average household can make is only about 400 to 500 sticks per day.
Just being industrious and hardworking is not enough to keep this profession growing.
Therefore, after many trials and errors, an artisan did his own research and came up with an incense-making machine./.
