A delegation led by Vice Chairman of the Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Toan on March 13 examined the implementation of a plan on preserving and bringing into play the values of the Muong ethnic culture and the Hoa Binh Civilisation for the 2023 - 2030 period in Lac Son district.


 Vice Chairman of the provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Van Toan and other officials make a fact-finding trip to the relic site of Trai Hamlet Cave in Tan Lap commune, Lac Son district.

The delegation inspected the planning of the restoration and upgrade of the national relic sites of Trai Hamlet Cave in Tan Lap commune and Vanh Village Stone Shelter in Yen Phu commune. These are outstanding and famous archaeological sites dating back to the Hoa Binh Civilisation.

Trai Hamlet Cave was listed as a national relic site by the Ministry of Culture and Information (now the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism) in 2001 while Vanh Village Stone Shelter was granted the status in 2003. The Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee is submitting a scientific dossier to the Prime Minister to seek the recognition of these two relic sites as those of special national importance.

Under the plan on preserving and bringing into play the values of the Muong ethnic culture and the Hoa Binh Civilisation for 2023 - 2030, the 3.08ha relic site area of Vanh Village Stone Shelter is maintained while the area zoned for protection is 5.407ha, about 2.237ha larger than planned. Trai Hamlet Cave has its relic site area kept at 1.48ha while the area zoned for protection is 1.55ha, about 0.75ha larger than planned. As the relic site of Trai Hamlet Cave holds much potential and advantages for developing spiritual and leisure tourism, its area is set to be expanded to 9.5ha.

Roads to the relic sites, as well as their exhibition halls, offices, spaces for events and festivals, service areas, and other facilities will be expanded.

At the meeting with local authorities, Vice Chairman Toan asked the Lac Son district People’s Committee to work closely with relevant departments and sectors along with the consultation unit to ensure the quality, long-term vision, and law adherence of the project on restoring and upgrading the national relic sites of Trai Hamlet Cave and Vanh Village Stone Shelter.

During the restoration and upgrade, the district needs to consult with culture researchers to ensure the project meets the requirements for preserving and promoting the relic sites’ cultural, historical, and spiritual values in order to capitalise on the core values of the Muong ethnic culture and the Hoa Binh Civilisation for sustainable tourism development.
