I came across a kiln in the ceramic village since we were working over for a week. Happened to see it as we were driving by and it is a very ancient and huge kiln. It was amazing! This specific kiln is over one thousand years old. Such an impressive way to build a kiln with so many rooms and vents. As you can see in the photos below it consist on four separate "rooms" where they would fire the ceramic pieces. It really is amazing how much we have evolved in the way do so many things now. They don't use this kiln anymore but is open for people to learn and explore. The entrance to the kiln is through the little arch ways on the side which is on both sides. I went inside and it was cool to see all the ceramic pieces they had inside and to imagine people working in inside of these kilns.
I went to an old church also which was in the middle of some homes in a village. The architecture is amazing with so much detail in the stone. There are so many catholic churches around Hanoi because of the French. I wasn't able to go inside of this church but the outside was beautiful.
