Place of creation:

Nestled alongside the Co Chien river, Cai Nhum and Cai Thay canals in Vinh Long province, lies Mang Thit, a village renowned as the "Ceramic Brick Village" or the evocative "Red Kingdom". For over a century, the art of crafting clay bricks has flourished here. While the village once boasted a staggering production of over 5 million ceramic products and bricks annually, its vibrancy has dimmed somewhat. However, this decline has ushered in a new chapter for Mang Thit. The village's unique charm and rich heritage have transformed it into a magnet for tourists and photographers, eager to capture the essence of this enduring Vietnamese tradition.
