Loc Yen also preserves a "treasure" which is a mysterious rotating table created by artisans from Van Ha carpentry village.

Visitors are introduced to a table with a diameter of about 80cm. If everyone places their hands face down on the table and agrees on which direction it will rotate, the table will slowly rotate. If everyone keeps their hands still and steps in the direction of the rotation of the table, it will move faster in that direction. When someone shouts "stop", it will suddenly stop... The table will rotate in the opposite direction when everyone turns their hands face up. However, not all experiments are successful.

Mr. Nguyen Dinh Hoan - the owner of the ancient house with the "magical" turntable said that on every holiday, the family always opens the door for visitors to freely visit, experience the turntable and freely contribute to the owner to preserve the house for tourism . Since the day Loc Yen Ancient Village was recognized as an ancient village, the number of tourists coming has increased and Loc Yen has become more well-known.
