Nick:
There are so many pieces of pottery here, Phong. Do your grandparents make all of them?
Phong:
They can’t because we have lots of products. They make some and other people make the rest.
Nick:
As far as I know, Bat Trang is one of the most famous traditional craft villages of Ha Noi, right?
Phong:
Right. My grandmother says it’s about 700 years old.
Mi: 
Wow! When did your grandparents set up this workshop?
Phong:
My great-grandparents started it, not my grandparents. Then my grandparents took over the business. All the artisans here are my aunts, uncles, and cousins.
Mi: 
I see. Your village is also a place of interest of Ha Noi, isn’t it?
Phong:
Yes. People come here to buy things for their house. Another attraction is they can make pottery themselves in workshops.

Cool! This is my first one. Do you think that the various crafts remind people of a specific region?
