MUONG ETHNIC GROUP CULTURAL SPACE MUSEUM IN HOABINH

The first thing visitors see is water spilling over rock formation into a stream flanked by rice mortars, a reflection of the unique cultural identity of the Muong people. The centuries-old Muong culture is captured in two sections: a reenactment section and a display section. The reenactment section contains 4 Muong stilt houses that illustrate the social stratification of feudal society. The Muong houses are differentiated by socialstatus - the “Lang” house for the most powerful families, the “Âu” house for the mandarins, the ‘Tạo” house for ordinary people, and the “Nõ” house for the lowest class, such as widows and orphans. Further on are display rooms which showcase traditional Muong handicrafts such as knitted woven and embroidered fabrics, tools for hunting and farming, and items used in festivals, traditional observances, and religious practice. Visitor Ngo Thu Nga from Hanoi told VOV: “I am grateful for the initiative, love of Muong culture, and effort that created these displays and this museum.”
