Trading Ceramics Museum (built c. 1858)
The Museum of Trading Ceramics, at 80 Tran Phu ST, is a fine old house converted into a museum of Hoi An's ceramic exports from the 15th to 17th centuries. The site is much more interesting than the displays, as the entire house is open to the public and is kept in prime condition. Although earlier buildings existed on the site, the present structure dates from 1858.
Location
The approximate location of the house is 15.877378' N, 108.329329' E (WGS 84 map datum).
