Zeng weaving is a unique type of handicraft production of the Ta Oi, Pa Co, and Van Kieu ethnic groups in the mountainous district of A Luoi, Thua Thien Hue province and has become a national intangible cultural heritage.
Let's join author Truc Nguyen Van to learn about the traditional weaving profession of the Ta Oi people with extremely beautiful and delicate weaving products, through the photo series "Zeng Weaving in A Luoi". This is also the photo series sent by the author to participate in the Photo and Video Contest "Happy Vietnam", organized by the Ministry of Information and Communications.
Zeng weaving is a long-standing traditional craft of the Ta Oi ethnic group in the mountainous district of A Luoi. Products made from Zeng mats are indispensable offerings or costumes in community activities or important festivals of the people in the highlands of A Luoi.
Each Zeng weaving product has value in many aspects, both as an item, ensuring daily needs and as a work of art, expressing unique characteristics in the cultural treasure of the Ta Oi ethnic group.
Over hundreds of years, the Zeng weaving craft has been preserved and passed down by local people; they search for materials themselves to weave colorful Zeng cloths with unique patterns.
Zeng weaving is both a cultural activity and an economic activity of the people today. The Zeng mats of the Ta Oi people have become products of high economic value, helping to improve the lives of the people today.
Currently, the Zeng weaving craft in A Luoi has been recognized as a National Intangible Cultural Heritage, which will create more jobs for people in their spare time; at the same time, it can be exploited as a typical tourism product through tours and research routes to learn about the culture and history of the craft village... contributing to poverty reduction for ethnic minorities in A Luoi./.
