In 2011, the pagoda’s abbot and Giang Cao villagers rebuilt the pagoda with the idea of ​​bringing the spirit of the village’s traditional pottery craft into the pagoda architecture.

All places of worship of the pagoda’s founder, Mother Goddess, 18 Buddhist Arhats were “ceramicized”.

All pillars in the pagoda were covered with fine porcelain. Porcelain paintings were made with soft lines and crafted from the skillful hands of local artisans.

The space outside was decorated with statues of tales recreating the daily life of enlightened monks

Tops of the pagoda roof were dragon-shaped decorated with sunflowers made by intricately carved porcelain

According to Giang Cao villagers, the combination of pottery of craft village culture and spiritual architecture at Tieu Dao pagoda features a unique beauty and soul of the traditional craft village
