(HBO) – A delegation of the standing board of the provincial Party Committee led by Secretary of the provincial Party Committee Nguyen Phi Long on December 2 made an inspection tour of cultural relics in the districts of Lac Son, Tan Lac and Cao Phong.
Vice Secretary of the provincial Party
Committee, Chairman of the provincial People's Council Bui Duc Hinh and Vice
Secretary of the provincial Party Committee, Chairman of the provincial
People's Committee Bui Van Khanh also joined the delegation.
The delegation
of the provincial Party Committee's standing board visits Trai Hamlet cave in
Tan Lap commune,Lac Son Commune.
In Lac Son district, the delegation visited Trai
Hamlet cave in Tan Lap commune and the Vanh Village stone shelter in Yen Phu
commune, which are typical archaeological sites of the Hoa Binh Civilisation
and have been ranked as national relic sites.
In 2022, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and
Tourism allowed Hoa Binh province to excavate these two national archaeological
sites. The excavations unearthed thousands of artifacts, typically stone, bone
and ceramic artifacts, most of which are artifacts of shaped pebbles, scraps,
raw pebbles and cores.
After seeing the conditions at these two
archaeological sites, Long asked the province’s Culture, Sports and Tourism
Department to urgently take steps to prepare documents asking for recognition
of the two sites as special national relic sites.
He required local authorities to pay attention
to preserving and promoting the values of the relics.
Lac Son district authority was asked to consult
the province about the planning and funding to build the Hoa Binh Cultural
Museum to conserve precious artifacts of archaeological relics in the locality
as well as the cultural values of the province.
Long said that the restoration of relics must be
in line with regulations, keep their values intact, and meet the spiritual
needs of local people.
The district also needs to pay attention to
investing in a road system that connects the relics with main roads and other
tourist attractions in the area.
In Tan Lac district, the delegation visited Luy
Ai village in Phong Phu commune.
In 2008, the village was recognised by the
Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism as a typical traditional village of
ethnic minorities and a representative village of the Muong ethnic group among
20 traditional villages of the country. Sixty-nine stilt houses in the hamlet
are well preserved and the temple where villagers worship the Village's
Tutelary god is recognised as a provincial historical and cultural relic.
Long said that the province’s culture sector
need to consult cultural experts and relevant agencies to construct a Muong
Cultural Space to further preserve, promote and honor the Muong culture.
It is also necessary to have a plan to create
livelihoods for local people so that they can preserve the 69 ancient stilt
houses properly.
The cultural agencies and Tan Lac district were
asked to provide local people with financial support, equipment and knowledge
in homestay tourism. The locality also needs to call on people to keep environmental
hygiene, plant indigenous trees, and create green clean beautiful
landscapes.
"The principle is to develop tourism and at the
same time properly preserve the ancient Muong village, traditional ethnic
cultural identities, natural landscape to improve living conditions and
spiritual life of people,” Long said.
In Cao Phong district, the delegation inspected
the implementation of the project "Mo Muong Cultural Conservation Area in
Combination with Tourism Area in Hop Phong Commune". The project proposal
was approved by the Provincial People's Council in Resolution No. 455/NQ-HDND,
dated May 11, 2021, with an investment of 50 billion VND.
The delegation asked the Cao Phong district
authority to urgently carry out site clearance as well as arrange a
resettlement area for people who have to move to make room for the
construction.
The implementation of the project must neither
affect the natural landscape nor local cultural and spiritual values. During
the construction, it is necessary to organise seminars to consult cultural
experts to ensure that the construction meets the requirements of the
preservation of traditional cultural and spiritual values./.
