UNIT 1: LOCAL ENVIRONMENT LESSON 1: GETTING STARTED

A visit to a traditional craft village/ P6,7
Nick : There are so many pieces of pottery here, Phong. Do your grandparents make all of

them?

Phong : They can\'t because we have lots of products. They make some and other people

make the rest.

Nick : As far as I know, BatTrang is one of the most famous traditional craft villages of Ha

Noi, right?

Phong : Right. My grandmother says it\'s about 700 years old.

Mi : Wow! When did your grandparents set up this workshop?

Phong : My great-grandparents started it, not my grandparents. Then my grandparents took

over the business. All the artisans here are my aunts, uncles, and cousins.

Mi : I see. Your village is also a place of interest of Ha Noi, isn\'t it?

Phong : Yes. People come here to buy things for their house. Another attraction is they can

make pottery themselves in workshops.

Nick : That must be a memorable experience.

Phong : In Viet Nam there are lots of craft villages like Bat Trang. Have you ever been to

any others?

Mi : I\'ve been to a conical hat making village in Hue!

Nick : Cool! This is my first one. Do you think that the various crafts remind people of a

specific region?

Mi : Sure. It\'s the reason tourists often choose handicrafts as souvenirs.

Phong : Let\'s go outside and look round the village. I. Vocabulary
