Location: Dong Xam Silver Village is
located in Hong Thai Commune, the north of Kien Xuong District, Thai Binh
Province.
Characteristics: Dong Xam is a village whose population is skilled in
metal carving.
According to the local people, 300 hundred years ago there was an artist named
Nguyen Kim Lau, who travelled downstream on the Tra Ly River by boat to Dong Xam
to make a living. He transferred his silver carving skills to the local people.
Over time, silver carving has been maintained and developed. After his death,
the Dong Xam Temple was built in appreciation of his contributions to the
village.
