Hanoi Ceramic Mosaic Mural, or Hanoi Ceramic Road (Vietnamese: Con đường Gốm sứ), is a ceramic mosaic mural built along the walls of the Red River dike system in Hanoi Capital, northern Vietnam. In other words, it stays on the Eastern boundary of the city centre, within walking distance of most hotels known to casual travelers.

With a length of about 3.85 kilometres (6,950m2), the ‘Ceramic Road’ is one of the major projects that were developed on the occasion to celebrate the Millennial Anniversary of Hanoi in October 2010.

The concept of the Ceramic Road was first developed by Vietnamese journalist Nguyen Thu Thuy in March 2007. She won a prize in the Hanoi architecture contest for her idea of transforming the dike system around Hanoi Capital into a ceramic mosaic. She wanted to mark the city’s millennium with an artistic mural which reinvigorated urban Hanoi and brought local communities together through public art.

With the support of the Hanoi’s People Committee, the project began on the mural in 2007 and involved 35 professional artists from Vietnam and from 10 countries including Denmark, France, Holland, Spain, Italy, Britain, America, Argentina, New Zealand and Australia. In addition, over 100 artisans from traditional ceramic villages in Vietnam joined the project and were supported by 500 Vietnamese and international children, and students from fine arts colleges throughout Vietnam. Foreign embassies and culture centres in Hanoi are also participated in the consultation process such as the Goethe-Institut, Alliance française L’espace, British Council, Società Dante Alighieri Dalte Centre, and other cultural centres of Russia and South Korea.

On 5th October 2010, Guinness World Records adjudicator, Beatriz Fernandez, undertook an official review of the Hanoi Ceramic Mosaic to confirm its dimensions and ensure the strict guidelines relating to the record had been followed. Ms. Fernandez confirmed that at 3,850m linear meters (6.950m2) of the Hanoi Ceramic Mosaic Mural was the world’s largest ceramic mosaic and awarded a Guinness World Records certificate. The dyke along the Red River is 6km inside Hanoi centre and the ceramic mosaic mural is nearly 4km long.

Each artist has brought their own creative ideas and techniques to the mural, and expressed these using ceramic tiles measuring just 3x3cm. Each meter square contains 1000 of these tiny tiles. The ceramic mural runs along the road of Âu Cơ, Nghi Tàm, Yên Phụ, Trần Nhật Duật, Trần Quang Khải, Trần Khánh Dư and terminates at the pier of the Long Biên Bridge. The main material used to create mosaic mural was ceramic tesserae, a type of tile used in the mosaic which is made from the Bat Trang village. People may be familiar with using ceramic to decorate houses, social constructions, and the art of using ceramic have been popular by its endurance.
