(HBO) – We were impressed with flowers along roads running through Ngai Long village in Chi Ne town, Lac Thuy district, Hoa Binh province.
Flowers are grown along the road to Ngai
Long – a model new-style rural area in Chi Ne town, Lac Thuy district.
In
response to the new-style rural area building movement, local residents
contributed money and working days worth 500 million VND to building the
village’s gate, upgrading its cultural house, and growing flowers.
Their
efforts paid off as all of the roads in Ngai Long have been concretised and the
cultural house fully equipped to serve community activities.
Having
85 percent of the total households working in agriculture, the village has
stepped up the shift of plant and animal structures, and taken the lead in
replicating new models.
It
now counts five model orchards, including one covering 3,000 sq.m of Secretary
of the village’s Party unit Le Van Hoa who earns more than 120 million VND from
the trees.
Ngai
Long expects to raise its per capita income to 48 million VND this year, a rise
from 6 million VND in 2019. Thanks to efforts in the new-style rural area
building movement, the material and spiritual lives of locals have improved
significantly and the poverty reduction programme reaped significant outcomes.
The
village, therefore, has been regarded as an area worth living in Lac Thuy
district, with political security and social order and safety ensured./.
Hoa Binh province has carried out multiple programmes and initiatives to revive its cultural heritage which has gradually fallen into oblivion through the ebbs and flows of history.
The most prominent and defining feature in the prehistoric era of Hoa Binh is the Hoa Binh Culture. The Culture was first discovered in Hoa Binh. The significant prehistoric culture represents not only Vietnam but also Southeast Asia and southern China. Through excavations of cave sites in the limestone regions of Hoa Binh, French archaeologist M. Colani introduced the world to a "Stone Age in Hoa Binh province – Northern Vietnam" in 1927. On January 30, 1932, the First Congress of Far Eastern Prehistorians, held in Hanoi, officially recognised the Hoa Binh Culture.
Known as the "Land of Epic History”, Hoa Binh province, the gateway to Vietnam’s northwest, boasts a strategic location and a unique cultural tapestry woven by its ethnic minority communities.
The People's Committee of Luong Son District recently held a ceremony to receive the certificate recognizing Sau Communal House in Thanh Cao Commune as a provincial-level historical and cultural site.
Recognising the importance of cultural heritage preservation in protecting and promoting the value system of Vietnamese culture, and serving socio-economic development in the new period, Party committees and local administrations in Hoa Binh province have identified it as a key task in the cultural development strategy. The province has been making efforts in mobilising resources, creating consensus among people and engaging ethnic communities in preserving and promoting cultural identity.
Hoa Binh province has captured growing attention both domestically and internationally for its distinctive cultural heritage and rich history. Most notably, it has been renowned for its famous Hoa Binh culture, considered the cradle of ancient Vietnamese civilisation. Looking ahead to significant milestones in 2025 and the 140th anniversary of province establishment in 2026, Hoa Binh Newspaper presents a comprehensive overview of the province's development across economic, social, cultural, tourism, and security domains.
