Village Khuoi year travel between two locations and the Nguom buying things Hello Falls Clam Dam Thuy commune , district Chongqing ( Cao Bang ) . It has long been famous Cavalry Khuoi with the name " stone village " rock god worship and unique border .

Admire the " stone village "

Experiencing the vicissitudes of history , now in Tay consciousness in Cao Bang " rock god " exists still attached and in their concepts . However , the house on stilts carry a shadow of the Mac was more or less sunk into oblivion .

Specifically Van Tam Nong ( 70 years old ) in the village of Ky Khuoi said : " In contrast to the years 1594 to 1677 period , when the Mac to the land of Cao Bang to build fortresses to defend the country , the house floor stone has been built up as a " fortress " uniquely dedicated to the noble rank .

Currently there are 14 homes Khuoi Cavalry stone floor and to conserve and rebuild it for the authorities in Cao Bang to spend nearly three years gem . It was not until 2010 " stone village " was completed with the unique architectural features .

Depending on how big or small house floor (usually 3 times - 2 bottles and 1 time - 2 bottles ) , the story of the wooden building floor Tay also need at least 5 year period with dozens of large wooden blocks , crackers , number of columns , truss ... "

However, when building the stone floor more attention to the selection of stone and arrange them . For example , to put a stone wall , the workers have to take months , sometimes nearly a year .

When laying stone to a height of approximately 2.5 m , the mechanic will charge about putting wood beams , then put the boards or bamboo flooring , and separated 1st floor and 2nd floor . These stones are selected for building almost similar in size and they are held together by a mixture of sand lime .

One more thing can notice the difference of Khuoi Cavalry village than elsewhere between the mountainous district of fences , roads entirely made of rocks .

Uniquely worship " rock god "

In the mind of the people here , has been regarded as a symbol of the god durable , solid may serve long-term purposes in daily life should have built a temple to worship the stone .

Inside the drinks flowing upland corn , an old man , weathered look outside the old bowl week was named Nong Van Khang , ethnic Tay Dam Thuy commune told us : " Stones in their minds as sacred a god to help protect the harsh nature . That is why in the customary law of each ethnic group on this land of Cao Bang are certain days to conduct sacrificial stone thank god , the god of the forest .

Lo Lo ethnic remember living in Bao Lac District , any year , continuing the weather in March is justified both residents despite the busy nowhere will also set aside at each meeting for the church coal is also the convention in order to celebrate the "Me -lo - yoke " ( understood literally worshiping rock god ) ...

Hang wish to convey ... , for the best things to come to his village in the coming days to crops . Think beyond that , this practice sacrificial stone also shows the sense of responsibility of the entire community before Mother Nature . "

According to the people here , they are considered as a part of the rock life . That's why there are stone walls that inimitable color coated solid time still exists , but no one dared to break even . Even anyone passing by stone walls , we unfortunately witnessed damaged is automatically picked up her son repeated .

Surrounding the stone fence , the village has a temple Cavalry Khuoi to worship stone

Between the vast space , the solid rock floor houses rising as a solid steel cumulative . Despite the passage of time , for hundreds of years but the stone floor of this house still enduring , steadfast , wrapped , transported cover residents gentle , naive perspective periphery .

Or, as Mr. Luong Van La , Chief District Chongqing Culture : " Most of the homeland who are ethnic Tay Hydro Dam , the house should also imbued their culture . Tay people have credit cult rock . they considered rock is the source of life and the center of the universe . they notion that all men are created from stone and death would have turned to stone .
