Museum of Trade Ceramics
Hoi An Museum of Trade Ceramics
The Museum of Trade Ceramics is located in Hoi An, central Vietnam. It is a museum showcasing the origins and history of the town and the region in the context of historic trade and relationships with foreign nations such as China, India, Japan, the Philippines and Thailand. The building housing the museum is itself an attractively restored traditional wooden house of Hoi An's old quarter, which on account of design similarity and an historically significant local Japanese trading community is likened to those of Kyoto.
