This is the first and only private museum in Vietnam dedicated exclusively to ancient ceramic artifacts found in a river. The Huong River Museum of Ancient Pottery is the result of the lifelong dedication and passion of Prof. Thai Kim Lan and her elder brother, late painter Thai Nguyen Ba, who spent nearly 40 years collecting and preserving pottery artifacts from the Huong River and other rivers in Hue. Talking about her aspiration, Prof. Lan said that this private museum could be considered a “primary school” about Vietnamese history and culture, passing on knowledge to the next generation. Covering about 700m2, the museum showcases over 5,000 artifacts, including a diverse range of everyday items such as stoves, jars, vases, bowls, and plates
