(HBO) – Preparations for the 17th Party Congress of Hoa Binh province for the 2020-2025 tenure have been actively made over the past few weeks, with communications activities and landscape improvement carried out.
Tran Hung Dao street in Hoa Binh province colourfully
decorated in celebration of the 17th provincial Party Congress.
To date, all streets and roads in Hoa Binh city
have been adorned with flags and flowers. Hundreds of large billboards, flags,
posters and banners marking all-level Party congresses and the provincial Party
Congress have been erected. The messages celebrating Party congresses stand out
at public places like the province’s Cultural Palace, the T-junction of Ky Son
ward, the cross-road of Tan Thinh ward, the Hoa Binh Square intersection and
the T-junction of An Duong Vuong – Tran Hung Dao streets, so as to easily
access local residents.
The joyful atmosphere can be felt across the
city as the national flag is hung in all residential areas and local houses.
Besides, landscape improvement has been promoted
by the Hoa Binh Urban Environment JSC. All of the firm’s employees have been
mobilised to keep local streets green, clean and beautiful by increasing waste
collection, pruning trees, planting flowers, and installing more lamps at some
locations, from the expanded stretch of Chi Lang street, Tran Hung Dao street
to Truong Han Sieu street and Thinh Lang avenue./.
Phong Phu commune, Tan Lac district of Hoa Binh province, is widely regarded as the cultural heartland of the Muong ethnic group. Among its many traditional communities, Luy Ai hamlet (formerly Ai hamlet) stands out as a rare location where the customs and way of life of the Muong Bi people remain largely intact.
The Truong Kha temple festival, a distinctive cultural event held every three years in Vu Ban township, Lac Son district, returned recently with vibrant rituals and folk traditions of the Muong people. Located next to the Buoi River in the Muong Trao fields, the Truong Kha Temple is dedicated to the three Kun Dol deities, revered for teaching farming techniques, irrigation, weaving, and protecting the harvest.
The demand for spaces serving community activities of residents in various areas across Hoa Binh city has been satisfied as local cultural houses now feature modern, spacious facilities thanks to the effective implementation of Resolution No. 49/NQ-HDND issued on December 28, 2021 by the city People's Council, which approved the plan for reorganising, converting, and allocating land for the construction, repair, and expansion of cultural houses in Hoa Binh’s villages and residential areas until 2025.
At the end of May, the Hoa Binh Provincial Ethnic Arts Troupe organized a series of performances for residents in Region 2 and Region 3 communes across the province. Bringing art to ethnic communities in remote, isolated, and especially disadvantaged areas has become a meaningful activity. These are not merely artistic performances but also journeys to disseminate cultural values, enrich spiritual life, and contribute to preserving the cultural identity of ethnic minorities.
