Dong Xam Silver Village
Dong Xam Silver Village

Location: Dong Xam Silver Village is located in Hong Thai Commune, the north of Kien Xuong District, Thai Binh Province.

Characteristics: Dong Xam is a village whose population is skilled in metal carving. 

 


According to the local people, 300 hundred years ago there was an artist named Nguyen Kim Lau, who travelled downstream on the Tra Ly River by boat to Dong Xam to make a living. He transferred his silver carving skills to the local people. Over time, silver carving has been maintained and developed. After his death, the Dong Xam Temple was built in appreciation of his contributions to the village.
