Hoi An is not only famous for its old culture and architecture but also famous for its craftmanship contributed by the 2 well-known craft villages: Kim Bong carpentry and Thanh Ha pottery. Many hundred years ago, the very first Vietnamese coming from the North set their villages around Hoi An and got along with the native Cham people here.
