On social networks, many people were proud and moved when witnessing the heartwarming images above. A user named "Phuc Kieu" commented: "A wonderful country, wonderful people, I love Vietnam. Phu Tho, you are wonderful, everyone loves you with all their hearts". A user named "Nguyen Tham" commented: "Phu Tho is wonderful, my Vietnamese people won because of solidarity".
Talking to Lao Dong Newspaper reporters on the morning of January 3, Mr. Nguyen Huu Ich - Chairman of Hung Lo Commune People's Committee, Viet Tri City said that the images of people wrapping cakes and giving them away for free to fans at IC7 Intersection were beautiful actions of members of the Xoan singing and folk song club of Hung Lo Commune, with the participation of people from 5 areas in the area.
"Those are images that have contributed to beautifying the homeland. The people of Hung Lo commune, Viet Tri city, Phu Tho ancestral land in particular and the Vietnamese people in general are like that, always hospitable, full of love and solidarity" - Mr. Ich confided.
Xoan singing is a precious intangible cultural heritage of the Ancestral Land, associated with the worship of Hung Kings, a belief originating from the practice of ancestor worship of the Vietnamese people.
Xoan singing is a type of folk song, ritual and custom, also known as communal house singing or "Khuc mon dinh", a multi-element art form: music, singing, dancing serving the religious needs of the community.
In recent years, the program "Hat Xoan Lang Co" (Old Village Xoan Singing) organized periodically by the People's Committee of Phu Tho province at the ancient Hung Lo communal house has turned this relic into an unmissable destination for tours to the land of the ancestors.
