Autêntica Aula de Cerâmica de Bat Trang no Bairro Antigo de Hanói

This is our first time to try pottery and probably not going to be the last. Our instructor is good in english and his assistant too. The assistant in particular is very patient with us even if we kept of breaking what we have been working on. She speaks great english. They sent us the photos of our works in whatsapp when they were done with the oven thingy and coloring them. They were ready for pickup in about 4 days? One of my finished product broke during the cooking process and they explained that it’s normal — they asked me to choose pick 1 item of the same value from their shop as replacement.

I had fun with pottery class. They assisted us very well with patience and professionalism. Making pots are challenging tho. I am glad I finally tried it. It only took me 2 days to get my pot and now i will take it home with me.

I loved the workshop, it was three hours in total. Some people decided to leave after two hours because they had made the items they wanted. I stayed for the full three hours and ended up making four items. The instructors are super friendly and helpful, and they are also originally from Bat Trang. You're getting the real deal from this workshop. After choosing your items, you can pick around five or six colors. It takes approximately two or three days for the glaze to be finished. If you don't have time, you can have it sent to your city. The first item is free, and every extra item costs US$5 each. I definitely recommend this; I had a lot of fun.

Excellent cours de la part de la formatrice, très détaillée et professionnelle. Ses instructions étape par étape étaient claires et le lieu est confortable. Je reviendrai certainement !

Do this on your 1st or 2nd day because the clay needs 1-3 days to fire-up (turn into end product) so you can collect from them and bring home on the same trip. If you can't make it, they do offer to ship so they will contact you later to confirm the shipping fee payment amount. You get to bring back 1 product and any additional is USD 5 each. Another option is to keep it there and you can collect the next time you visitn Hanoi. The location is in Hanoi's Old Quarter itself so it is very convenient. The instructor spoke well, gives clear instructions and was very patient. Definitely worth the visit!

Excellent & a worthwhile activity! We booked a day earlier for 30 Oct 2.30pm slot. They texted & even called via Whatsapp to ask if we could come at 4.30pm instead which we okay'ed. The pottery class is on the 2nd floor & they have slippers to wear so as not to dirty our shoes. Instructor is very skilled, friendly & helped to save the day when our clay flopped many times. We sat for almost 3 full hours and stood with a sore back but feeling very happy. You get to pick one of your handmade babies to be glazed & fired, or pay additional if you wish to keep more than 1. They can also shipped the products to your country if you are leaving the country before they are done glazing & firing. After the firing process was done, they shared some photos & we were very pleased. Definitely have a try especially if you've never done pottery!

Such a fun experience! I booked the morning class and I was the only student! My instructor taught me well and the people in the shops were so nice! experience: 100/10 DO THIS!! location: accessible instructor: english language and well-spoken

I had such a great experience at Authentic Bat Trang Ceramic Shop, it turned out to be one of the highlights of my time in Hanoi. The class felt really authentic and not overly commercialized. You actually get to sit at the wheel and try shaping clay yourself, and the instructor was super patient, guiding step by step even if it’s your first time. It’s harder than it looks, but also very fun and surprisingly relaxing. Overall, it’s a meaningful and memorable experience, especially if you want to try something different beyond the usual sightseeing. Highly recommend setting aside a few hours for this if you’re visiting Hanoi.

this was pretty cool! had a fun time with my mom doing pottery for the first time 🫶🏻 everyone here is really kind and the instructor’s English is very good so there was no problem in communicating.

This was my first activity in Hanoi after my flight from the Philippines. I was a bit groggy because I still lack sleep, but the pottery class was interesting and it was a form of meditation and relaxation for me as I mold the ceramics into my masterpieces. The instructor was very patient and supportive as I do and redo the molding and she also shared the history of Bat rang that it’s been existing in century. One of a kind experience and what’s more sweet is I am taking home all the of my masterpieces with me. It’s like I am taking a piece of Hanoi in my luggage and would be using it when I am back in Manila. One of a kind souvenir of memories and history. My heart is full. This is highly recommended. 🫶
