越南会安古镇｜隐藏在世界遗产里的华人故事，第六代后人守护祖先会馆”

I am a sixth-generation Chinese. I am Chinese. Why did I come to Vietnam from Fujian? There is a small ancient town in central Vietnam. Hundreds of years ago , it was one of the most prosperous international trading ports in Southeast Asia . It was called Hoi An. In the 16th and 17th centuries , it was an important post station on the Maritime Silk Road. At that time, the streets of Hoi An were full of Japanese merchants, Chinese guilds , and even Portuguese and Dutch people who came from afar. Silk, ceramics, and spices were exchanged here , bringing with them a diverse architecture, cuisine, and culture. However, as the river silted up and the trade center shifted, this once international port gradually fell silent. Hoi An slowly retreated from the bustling “Venice of the East” to a quiet town. This silence unexpectedly preserved its unique historical features. Today, when we walk into Hoi An, it seems as if we can see a The living history of Southeast Asia’s opening up is in Ashu Vietnam, Episode 45. Come with me to Hoi An to see how this ancient town went from prosperity to silence and how it was reborn today as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In Vietnam, I often see big trees that catch my eye, such as this one . Look how magnificent it is. A Vietnamese woman selling lottery tickets. My God , this tree is hard to describe. Like many countries and nationalities, their traditional costumes are just different. Some people think they look good, while others don’t. But the Vietnamese Ao Dai seems to be more recognized worldwide. I think it really reflects the graceful figure of Vietnamese women (I think it looks good). Clothing stores like these provide custom services , making your shirts and suits tailor-made for you . Clothing stores in tourist areas also offer currency exchange services. This street seems to have a lot of these stores. It seems you can also learn tailoring here. I saw quite a few of these stores in Hoi An, but later I learned that Hoi An’s tailoring industry has a long history. Hundreds of years ago, hand-sewn clothes were popular. This is because Hoi An was once an important international trading port, so tailors served people from different cultures, including Cham people, Vietnamese , Japanese , Chinese, and Western merchants . These oil painting shops reflect some of Vietnam’s characteristics in their paintings. For example, in Hanoi’s Train Street, there are women wearing conical hats carrying shoulder poles. Hoi An’s Xian Temple and Pan Temple are laying water pipes . Listening to the hawkers walking through the alleys, it feels like I’ve been transported back to the Republic of China era in the movie. Before I came to Hoi An Ancient Town, I read some comments online saying that Hoi An Ancient Town is a very commercial place, full of small commodity wholesale shops. The shops are quite boring. But when I came here, if you slowly feel its architecture and culture, it is actually very charming. It depends on how you experience it and feel it. I was strolling aimlessly around the tailor. Now I should have walked to the main tourist area. There are suddenly more tourists. This should be a famous coffee shop. This is Hoi An Ancient Town, one of the eight world heritage sites in Vietnam. The architectural style is similar to the arcade style of Yulin, Guangxi. Behind me is the Guangzhao Guild Hall . Hoi An has many Chinese guild halls , such as the Fujian Guild Hall, the Hainan Guild Hall, the Chaozhou Guild Hall, and the Guangzhao Guild Hall . From the 17th to the 19th century, many Chinese, especially those from the places mentioned above, came to Hoi An to do business and settle down. Therefore, these merchants from Chaozhou, Guangdong, Fujian, and Hainan in China established many guild halls according to their places of origin. These guild halls were not only religious places , but also social places and centers for mutual assistance and emotional connection. The Guangdong-Chaozhou Guild Hall has more exquisite carvings . A package ticket costs 120,000 Vietnamese dong , which is about 36 yuan (about 5 US dollars). After buying this ticket , you can visit many places here, mainly some guild halls such as the Fujian Guild Hall and the Guangdong Guild Hall. Some of the main attractions of Hoi An Ancient Town In the 17th and 18th centuries, Hoi An Ancient Town was the most prosperous international commercial port in Southeast Asia. It is home to many The center of international merchant ship traffic is the center of trade activities for many merchant ships from Japan, China , Portugal , Spain, Norway, and India. This is the Hoi An Fujian Association Hall. This is the first place that requires a paid package to visit. The longevity character Qun Qin Da Mu was built during the Guangxu period of the Golden Mountain Temple . We can see that the donations here are several million (Vietnamese Dong). The country is peaceful and the people are safe , righteous, honest and shameful. There is a large stone table at the entrance . It feels amazing that you can still understand the words here after traveling abroad. It is written here: “Qian En Hao Dang ” above. There are also the Hoi An Fujian Association Hall, Hoi An Tian Hou Temple , the Teochew Association Hall, the Chinese Association Hall , the Guangdong and Chaozhou Association Hall , and the Jiaying Gang. These are mainly hung on the ground. Chinese people from all over the world, Singapore , Malaysia , in addition to Chinese , there are also some English and Vietnamese. “Wish your family peace and good health ” is written here. Health and wisdom. Good health and a speedy recovery for Malaysia . Statues of Confucius are lined up. I think I see familiar faces. Ha! President Hu Jintao visited the Fujian Association, as did Jiang Zemin. Ha ! Hoi An, riding on clouds , I think it’s quite interesting. If you calm down, it’s not as commercialized as people say on the internet . If you give up utilitarianism, stop thinking about getting anything , and immerse yourself in this environment, you’ll feel like you’re being nurtured. Ha ! Sincerity, unity, etiquette, integrity, Hoi An Pavilion, divine power, rejuvenation, Guihai Ciyun. There are two little girls learning Kung Fu. There are two doors on the left and right that are inscribed with “East is prosperous, West is virtuous, great peace is achieved , and the country will be prosperous forever.” The second guild hall is called the Chinese Guild Hall , Etiquette and Chinese Language Center , Vietnamese Overseas Chinese Anti-Japanese War Martyrs are ancient cabinets , etiquette and integrity. This guild hall does not require a ticket to enter and is not one of the five places that require tickets to enter. Tianhou Temple, Houde Chongguang, take a look at the introduction of the Mother of Heaven (known as Mazu in the Chinese-speaking world) . In Vietnam, I often see temples of the Mother of Heaven. I believe it is self-evident to the audience in front of the screen. She is said to have magical powers to rescue people in distress at sea. Later, she was revered as the patron saint of the sea. The Mother of Heaven is equivalent to the guardian goddess of the sea. Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, a large number of Chinese from Fujian, Guangdong and other places have immigrated to Southeast Asia, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia and other places to make a living . They sailed long distances , faced the dangers of wind and waves , pirates, diseases and other dangers. In order to ensure safe navigation and smooth trade, these Chinese brought the belief in Mazu to the Nanyang region and established many temples for Mazu or the Mother of Heaven. Building temples or holding sacrificial activities in foreign countries also helped these newly arrived Chinese . Being in a foreign land is about forming cohesion or establishing cultural identity and mutual help. This museum is a 360-square-meter old house built in the late 19th century. In 1995, in cooperation with Japanese experts, this house was transformed into a pottery trade museum. This wax apple tree is so tall. I saw small wax apple trees in Hainan . These porcelain pieces on the second floor are from this Japanese street, 300 meters west of Dazhan Haikou, not far from Hoi An . There is a Cham Island opposite. Back then, not far from Cham Island, about 80 meters deep on the seabed, archaeologists discovered The site of an ancient merchant shipwreck. The ship was filled with Vietnamese ceramics from the 15th and 16th centuries , mainly from kilns in northern Vietnam. Covered by silt after sinking, these ceramics are remarkably well-preserved. Many bowls, vases, and large plates are still clearly visible today. The merchant ship was transporting ceramics to Southeast Asian countries along the East China Sea route when it was wrecked here. It chose a route just 30 kilometers offshore to avoid pirates , but unfortunately, it was not spared. This shipwreck site reveals that ancient maritime trade between Vietnam and its neighbors dates back to the 18th and 19th centuries. Blue and white porcelain, Chinese blue and white porcelain, 19th century blue and white porcelain. These are all some porcelain, some excavated porcelain. These are some excavated porcelain fragments . The structure of this house is quite unique. There is a patio-like area on the second floor, and the roof is covered with plants. This is the Folk Museum. This
is the third place you need to visit with a ticket today . This is the history of the development of Hoi An tailoring. As mentioned earlier, Hoi An’s tailoring industry has developed rapidly since the 16th century. This is because as an international trading port, custom-made clothes for people from various countries was a necessity at the time. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, after the sewing machine was introduced, Hoi An’s tailoring industry flourished. Many tailor shops specialize in making traditional Vietnamese costumes and European-style clothes. They select fabrics, measure the body , cut and sew, and every step is meticulous. The materials used are also light and natural fabrics, such as silk , chiffon and linen, which are very suitable for Vietnam’s hot and humid climate. After Hoi An was listed as a World Cultural Heritage by the United Nations, the tailoring industry here has become more prosperous. Many tailor shops can tailor a unique piece of clothing for customers within a day, so there are many. Visitors to Hoi An should consider getting a custom-made dress as a must-see tourist experience. Lion dances have been around in Hoi An for a long time. They’re mainly performed to liven up celebrations , with the main purpose of promoting peace , warding off evil spirits, and bringing good luck. This is a traditional irrigation method, diverting water from canals to low-water rice paddies for plowing. I saw this scene when I was a child , but it’s gone now. Back home, the fields are plowed entirely by machines. Hoi An is a coastal port, so international trade is developing rapidly. As for fishing, I’ve rarely seen this before . This one is for catching baby crabs. These are decorative items on the eaves of houses, with fish and dragons , and these are patterned columns. The Paladins have the gods of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, among other gods. This scene reminded me of the annual folk custom (the human dragon dance) in Zhanjiang, Guangdong. I saw this last night, but I don’t know the name. It’s a folk game that ‘s very popular in China and Vietnam . I was curious about how to play it, so I looked it up. It’s called Bai. Chòi (card singing) is a popular folk art and folk game in central Vietnam . The game card set consists of 30 cards, each with a name card, divided into two piles. The 30 single cards are kept by the game singer , who is also the game host. The 10 decks of cards are distributed to the game players. During the game , players buy cards in their respective huts and wait for the singer to draw and keep a card in turn , while singing the name of the card. The player holding the same card as the one sung by the singer sticks a card on the bamboo pole in the hut. Whoever collects three cards first wins and receives a prize. It is a bit like a game that combines singing, lottery and playing cards. It is often played during the Spring Festival or other festivals . It has a history of hundreds of years and has been recognized by the United Nations as a World Intangible Cultural Heritage. Watching this game is like traveling back to the festival scene of an ancient Vietnamese village. Fishing uses many tools, and each prop has a different function. Weights and scales in the 1950s… This is a market selling porcelain and this is a market selling meat. This is a small stall at the market. This is the Hoi An market. This is the market activity by the river. This is a stall selling betel nuts. This is a stall selling pottery jars. This is a stall selling meat at the market. It says that in the past, when agriculture was not so modern, these farmers relied on this most primitive irrigation method. They dug this canal and then used this bamboo basket to bring water to their fields. This is an ancient fishing tool. Women pushed water and mud forward over this bamboo basket, and small fish, shrimps, and crabs were put into this bamboo basket . This is a scene from the interior of a traditional Hoi An house, restoring the living room, bedroom, and some dining areas. Take a look at Hoi An’s traditional food. This is the Thu Bon River. This is a wedding gift box . This is a medium-sized food box . This is the marriage certificate. The person who presided over the wedding. Uh, a wedding in Hoi An has both the whole Vietnamese This universal commonality of the South has its own local characteristics. A lucky and blessed wedding should include the following: first, announce the good news to the public, then visit the girl’s family to greet her and ask her name , then get engaged and hold the wedding, and then return to the groom’s home. I looked at the map and found a place to visit . The more I walked around, the more I found myself reluctant to leave. I found that Hoi An Ancient Town is like drinking a sip of aged wine , which gives you an endless aftertaste. If you are in a hurry, for example, I have to visit several places in a day, you may not be able to appreciate the charm here. When you are not in a hurry and just stroll here leisurely, this is an old house built by a Chinese merchant in the late 17th century . It is the oldest and most beautiful house in Hoi An. Yes I have a ticket. Okay , thank you. Where are you from? I’m from China. China. Where in China is Guangxi ? First of all, I’m from Fujian. Your ancestors are from Fujian. Have you been to Fujian? I’ve been to Zhangzhou, Fujian. I was born here . I’m the sixth generation of Chinese. Sixth generation. I’m Chinese. Why did you come to Vietnam from Fujian? To do business, to buy medicinal herbs . This is your grandfather’s grandfather . Thank you, ancestor. Thank you. This is this grandfather’s ancestor. He was the first generation to travel thousands of miles from Fujian, China to Vietnam. This is their old house. You can tell at a glance that they were from a wealthy family. To have such a big house, in Hoi An, there are the three treasures of Hoi An. One is white rose dumplings, one is fried wontons, and one is high-rise noodles. This is white fungus and shiitake mushrooms. The ingredients for making white rose dumplings are white roses. She is your wife , hehe, is she ? Vietnamese ? Does she speak Chinese? No, thank you. This grandfather settled down in Hoi An. These are his descendants . You want to eat, no,
I’m I’m full , I’m full, hahaha. They’re all here. White Rose, oh, let’s take a look at one of Hoi An’s specialties. White Rose Gaolou Noodles. Is this made with rice? Glutinous rice flour . When I first came to Hoi An, I frequently heard about the three treasures of Hoi An. I only knew that they were Gaolou Noodles, fried wontons (wonton stew). White Rose Gaolou Noodles is the rougher wide noodle I ate in the previous episode. It has a chewy texture and is usually served with fried crackers, herbs (vegetables) , and a little broth. The second treasure is wontons, or wontons, which are what this grandma is making right now. Hoi An wontons come in soup and fried. It’s easy for us to understand why the skin is thin and the filling is delicious. For example, my hometown, Yulin, is famous for its wontons throughout Guangxi . I’ve been eating wontons since I was a child. Hoi An’s third treasure is the famous white rose. Don’t mistake it for a flower ; it’s actually a crystal-clear little dumpling . The thin skin, like petals, wraps around the delicious filling. Dipped in a special fish sauce, it’s sweet, sour, slightly spicy , and refreshing—just the right balance. These three are the flavor signatures of Hoi An. Vietnam was my first trip abroad as a solo backpacker, so the Chinese life I learned about in Hoi An was also my first introduction to overseas Chinese. Although I’ve heard stories about going to Southeast Asia in history , I still feel deeply moved when I actually communicate with these Chinese people who may have been there for several generations. Their ancestors in those days traveled across the oceans, braved the wind and waves , and fought against the wind and waves in the dangerous sea just to survive , or to have a better tomorrow and future. Maybe I will also visit Chinese people around the world. If you have life memories and stories related to Chinese people, you are welcome to share them with me in the comment section. One is the white rose dumpling, which costs 50,000 Vietnamese dong , about 15 yuan (about 2.1 US dollars). I will come back when I have time. Have fun and enjoy it. Thank you. Grandpa also asked me to eat here. I said I had already eaten, and he said to come here for dinner at 6 or 7 pm . Now, his old house has become one of the tourist attractions, recording some of the history of this Chinese. The period above the fifth year of Guangxu is the entire content of this video. I’m very happy that you can see this far. If you like my video, don’t forget to like and subscribe to my channel, which is a great support for me . In the next episode, we will go to the authentic market in Hoi An to see the more authentic local lifestyle and the very urban food culture. Thank you for watching. I am Atlas. See you next time. Thank you for watching, subscribing, liking and leaving a message.
