Iran Thi My Hanh: A Glimpse of Cultural Heritage of Nghe Region through Oong Vien Commu- nal House
The author considers Bong Vien communal house a typical fomi of fine art in Ngh& region, then com- pare with cultural heritage natlonvKide, mostly northern area, aiming to conclude the values of Viet's tra- ditional fine arts that still existed in Northern Central area when it came to its decline in the North. At the same time, the author also mentions some basic meanings of carving blocks to show ancestors* ideology and culture.
