Once following a friend of mine to Hoi An (Quang Nam province), I was quite impressed with the communal house of Cam Thanh commune. From outside, the building has a bold characteristic of the image of a Vietnamese village with a row of upright areca palm trees. In particular, the structure of sturdy wooden columns and bamboo frames, and available natural materials make visitors feel close to their homeland.

The cultural spaces of Vietnamese and international craft villages seem to bring visitors to the quintessence of the craft villages with the performances of various sophisticated skills to create unique products, making unmistakable values of each craft village.

Located 5 kilometers away from the center of Hue City to the North, Duc Buu village (Huong So Ward, Hue City) specializes in producing famous specialty dumplings of the ancient capital land, including: banh beo, banh loc goi (the Vietnamese clear shrimp and pork dumpling wrapped in banana leaf), banh nam, and banh ram it, etc.

The exhibition introduced viewers to over 120 rare and precious Sino-Vietnamese Demotic documents. In fact, these documents are ordinationconferment papers and degrees that were preserved in villages, private homes and later restored.
