The cultural works of Tan Vinh Commune (Luong Son) are in the finishing stage, meeting the new rural area criteria.

In 3 years (2014 - 2016), the system of cultural facilities of Nhuan Trach commune was built and financed by various sources of capital. In particular, the commune cultural house of 600 m2, with the capacity of over 300 seats was invested 4.5 billion VND from the integrated capital of the district. The commune stadium is 9,000 square meters in size and was invested 1.7 billion VND from the government bond and the district budget. In 2016, the sports center serving children and elderly people was built with the provincial reward fund. In addition, with the motto of the State and people working together, from the capital to build new rural area, the commune budget, the local people contribute, the enterprises support, there have been mobilized over 644 million VND to build new, upgrade and repair culture houses and sport fields in villages and hamlets to meet the standards as prescribed, meeting the needs of community activities of the people.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Thu Hang, the Head of District Culture and Communication Board, said that: Up to now, 13 out of 19 communes in the district have reached the criteria of cultural facilities. The remaining communes did not meet the criteria, mainly due to budget constraints. This is one of the difficult criteria of the district in implementing new rural area.

Through the study and implementation of the criteria, the communes in the district have reserved land, planned the center cultural and sports center areas to ensure the area according to regulations. Along with the public land area of ​​the commune, the people voluntarily donate land to serve the construction work. However, the construction investment sources are large, mainly depended on the invested capital in the program and district budget, so the communes can not take the initiative by themselves. The investment can not be concentrated at a time so it must be dilated every year, prioritizing investment in the communes planning to achieve the target of new rural area.

In addition, there are 178 out of 184 village culture houses, reaching 96.7%.
