How to go to Bat Trang ceramics village? The way to Bat Trang ceramics village is very simple and convenient. Visitors can either go by bus, motorcycle or riverway.
Riverway: Usually on weekends, there is a Red River tour passing Bat Trang ceramics village and Chu Dong Tu - Tien Dung temple, which costs about 350,000 VND - 400,000 VND. Or visitors can follow Highway No.5 to Trau Quy and turn right along the inter-district road through Da Ton commune to Bat Trang (about more than 20 km).
Motorcycle or other road vehicles (taxis, cars...):
The second option for visitors is motorcycles. Those who have a passion for backpacking trips will definitely choose this means of transportation.
Going by motorcycle from Long Bien to Bat Trang only takes about 20-25 minutes, which is quite more time-saving than taking the bus.
