Thanh Hoa: Xuan Pha folk dance recognised as national heritage

March 6, 2017 by robert Leave a Comment

The folk dance, dated from the Dinh Dynasty (968 - 980), has been practiced, preserved and developed for centuries by Xuan Pha villagers in Xuan Truong Commune, Tho Xuan District. It features five dances, namely Hoa Lang, Tu Huan, Ai Lao, Ngo Quoc and Xiem Thanh. The dance was based on the ceremonial music of the dynasty and then was simplified into communal and village ritual music. During the performances, dancers dressed in colourful costumes and wore masks and make-up to render themselves unrecognisable. The Xuan Pha dance is performed at the village’s traditional annual festival on the tenth day of the second lunar month to express gratitude to the gods and to pray for prosperity and bumper crops while helping entertain local people after a year of hard work. The dance has also been performed at many major events of the country, including President Ho Chi Minh’s birthday celebrations, the National Day, Hue Festivals and the ceremony marking Thang Long–Hanoi … [Read more...] about Thanh Hoa: Xuan Pha folk dance recognised as national heritage

Quang Cung temple given national heritage status

April 11, 2013 by robert Leave a Comment

Quang Cung Temple in northern Nam Dinh province that worships Mother Goddess Lieu Hanh, one of four immortals in Vietnamese folklore , has been recognised as part of the nation’s cultural historical heritage. The honour was presented by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism at a ceremony on April 11. Located in Yen Dong commune, Y Yen district, the temple was built on the foundations of Lieu Hanh’s house, where she is said to have been reborn. As the legend goes, Lieu Hanh’s first descent to earth was on the sixth day of the third lunar month of Giap Dan (1434) under the reign of King Le Thai Tong. In Quy Ty (1473), she returned to Heaven. Local people established the temple to express their gratitude to the Mother’s great contributions. In 1973, local people dismantled the temple, which was damaged by time and wars, and used its materials for social welfare establishments. With the support of local authorities and contributions from people across … [Read more...] about Quang Cung temple given national heritage status
