(HBO) - Inaugurated in 2016, Hoa Binh square in Hoa Binh city of the province of the same name has become a favourite playground of both children and adults. Many people come to the site at dusk and in the evening to jog, ride bicycles and stroll. Youngsters sometimes play music for dancing and hip hop practice, livening up the atmosphere.
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.

square has lightened up local people’s lives. Everyone coming to the site is
aware of maintaining the landscape and environment./.
Hoa Binh province’s rich natural and cultural resources position it as a prime location for developing community-based tourism (CBT). In recent years, support from central and provincial policies, as well as assistance from non-governmental organisations, have encouraged local ethnic minority and mountainous communities to actively engage in the sector.
Van Son Commune, Tan Lạc district, Hoa Binh province also known as "Cloud Valley," boasts a cool climate, stunning natural landscapes, and majestic scenery. Visitors who have been to this place should make a stop at Chien Hamlet to experience a lot of fascinating things and feel the friendly, warmth of the Muong ethnic people.
Thanks to the effective exploitation of natural landscape and the cultural diversity of ethnic minorities, Hoa Binh province has become an attractive destination for tourists seeking experiences and exploration.
The Department of Cultural Heritage has just coordinated with the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism of Hoa Binh province to organize a training on implementing the model of the cultural heritage connected in the cultural tourism journey in Cao Phong and Lac Son districts.
The Sung village in Cao Son commune, Da Bac district, is endowed with pristine natural landscape, and Dao Tien ethnic minority community in the village preserves rich cultural heritage, including traditional housing, clothing, language, scripts, customs, and daily life practices. Since the community-based tourism model was introduced in the locality, these traditional cultural values have been further preserved and promoted.
