The Can Tho Museum on December 27 opened an exhibition of old pottery, belonging to the collections of Vo Minh Man and Tran Quoc Doan.

These two individuals have spent much time and effort collecting pottery throughout Vietnam, in the interest of preserving the nation's cultural heritage.

The exhibition includes pottery from different regions of the country, such as Chu Dau and Bat Trang in the north, O Chau and Quang Duc in central Vietnam and Cay Mai, Lai Thieu and Bien Hoa in the south.

The pottery is quite diverse in nature, including bowls, vases, wine bottles, dishes and sculptured animals, such as crabs and fish. Visitors to the exhibition will be able to see an assortment of ceramic and pottery that spans a wide range of time periods and regions of the country.
