Situated in the Van Ha Commune of Viet Yen district, Tho Ha village was once known as one of three major northern ceramic centres, along with Bat Trang and Phu Lang. 

Legend has it that a poor young man named Lo went missing from his village. After some time his friends went to look for him and finally found him, dead by a stream with a Khen Be in his hand. 

As spring arrives in the northwestern region, it is the time when young H’Mong men ask their friends to help them to “steal or pull a wife”, an established local custom.
