Thu Sy Village, situated in Hung Yen Province, is well-known for its production of bamboo fish traps. These traps, intricately woven by skilled artisans, are used for catching fish in the local rivers and ponds. The village is a vibrant community where the traditional craft remains a significant part of daily life and the local economy. The history of Thu Sy’s fish trap craft dates back several centuries. The craft has been passed down through generations, with each family contributing to the preservation and continuation of this traditional skill. The village’s reputation for quality fish traps has spread throughout Vietnam, making Thu Sy a prominent name in this unique industry. Join-in me for a half day trip to Thu Sy Village and explore the daily life in one of the most beautiful villages in Northen Vietnam!
