Hoa Binh square becomes a favourite playground of children.

The square, also known as Quynh Lam multi-purpose complex, was constructed to mark 130 years of the province’s establishment and 25 years of its re-establishment.

Recalling the period when the complex was being built, an architect took part in the project said it is a construction work of political, architectural and cultural significance, creating a highlight for Hoa Binh city’s urban landscape. It bears both modern and traditional cultural features, including the gong cultural space of the Muong ethnic minority people.

The centre of the rostrum is a symbol of six main groups residing in the province, namely Muong, Thai, Kinh, Tay, Dao and Mong. The symbol contains six pillars similar to the frame of a stilt wooden house of the ethnic groups as well as the character "Person” in Chinese language. An image of a reformed version Muong gong is placed in a square-shaped flower background.
