A visit to Tho Ha Village is a real touch of a typical traditional Vietnamese village in the Red River Delta. A half day tour I did was absolutely beyond my expectations as what I learned and experienced was so much for such a little time and money. I joined one family for making clay roofing tiles; another showed me how to make votive paper ritual products; a lovely lady taught me to make rice paper (this rice paper is for the delicious spring rolls, not Japanese rice paper as I initially thought!); A generous man offered me rice wine and sang his traditional Quan Ho song to me!
The village itself is so beautiful. Little alleys, brick walls, small houses, a little ferry (which is made from concrete!) took us across the river. Lively life in the village and on a dry day you can see villagers drying their fresh rice paper everywhere in the village, which makes stunning photo opportunities! Don't miss this village!
