In front of a completely different village, Ms. Ha Thi Tich, a retired teacher in the residential quarter of Quarter 50, shared her feelings through the simple poems: The communal house opened the festival today / Picked up by the flying flag monument. Heaven / People on their own rejoice at home / How old the old meaning is.
Indeed, for nearly 20 years, the Hoa My village association has united everyone with a word Love.

Central Urban - Rural Planning Center participates in activities as a unit of the village, once requesting agencies and units to play after the Tet holiday and donate to the village to form an apricot forest. The center, due to the peculiarity of the job, may move to many places, but it is hard to forget Hoa My as the verse of a member of the center participating in the flower arrangement contest at the village festival: “The future is over ten thousand the road / Love of the village means neighbor forever king ".

Mr. Nguyen Cong Diep, Head of Administration - School Organization has a different perspective on the village festival: “Hoa My Street! The song is not old / May nearly ru forever in May / Also tunic, long pants, jeans, short shirts ... / Only regret missing the village pond for me to look at, I look! / And unfortunately when life ends Age / Know someone who cherishes little countryside? ...

PROVERB: When you drink water, remember the source
On the evening of January 12, the families of Hoa Phu village picked up literature from Mr. Tu's house to worship Nguyen Tin and went to the temple to celebrate Nghiep van. Recently, the village has sent people to the North to make a procession in the traditional prototype, this year's village festival "open goods" to pick around the residential area. The official sacrifices to the position of the politician, Nguyen Ngan, near the eighth week, the descendant of the ancestor of the village, frantically dressed in a robes and placed everything there and then stood up to be the chief of the cult in the ceremony. rain and wind harmony, national peace.
Hoa Phu village currently has 45 sects, but not everyone knows the origin of the old village. Before, this place was called Phu Loc with three neighbors. Bac Ninh in the North is a coastal fishing village. Xisha in the West is a region with lots of white sand. Hoa Phu village was the widest (perhaps because of that the village's name was changed to Hoa Phu), after it split into five small hamlets, namely Hoa Binh, Phu Ca, Phu Trung, Phu Xuan and Hoa Nam.
In his poem "My hometown river", Mr. Ho Know, Chairman of the Hoa Minh Ward Farmers' Association, preserved the once-connected landmarks associated with the founding of the people of the ancestors of Hoa Phu village. In the old village, there was a place named Cay Da slump that was accompanied by the agricultural life of Hoa Phu people, described by him: “Tree Da, the body of winter people / Moon came to shine waiting to look for you / Dandruff shoulders. beautiful slap / To harvest remember the river love ”. This night slapping scene also took place in another place: "Flooded water drained from Mu U / Bo Hang, Na Vau alluvial fields".
Called the Mu U slot, because there are two old trees in the forest - Ms. Huynh Thi Le, President of Hoa Minh Women's Union, explained. When returning to be a bride in Hoa Phu village, she used to make a slap late at the crack, leaving many memories for the beautiful men and women in this village. Just like the slap of the Da Da, there were many "competitions" between boys and girls in the village and many people later became couples.
Nguyen Ngan, whenever talking to the youth in the village, did not forget to recall the old folk names like Bau Nang, Bau Say, Bau Lat ... showing that this place used to be a deserted land with many types. Herbs and wild herbs had to be cleared openly. Now the city is immense, the road across the alley is more grateful to the previous person. This principle of "drinking water and remembering the source", according to Mr. Vo Phu, Head of the Organization Committee of Hoa Phu Communal Village Festival, was expressed by the villagers in the non-sharing 300 million dong of cooperative members' shares after the award. Hoa Minh Agricultural Cooperative that voluntarily contributes to renovate the communal house to have a place to respect ancestors.
From 2001, when conducting urban embellishment, Hoa Phu had many households from different places resettled, especially in two hamlets of Bac Ninh and Hoa Binh. 11 years of restoring a village festival, not so much for some new people to catch up with the general spiritual cultural life of the village. That is what the village organizing committee will aim for in the following years.
The village festival in the middle of the street
Even though it is still a ward / village, the village ceremony is still old. The verse of Pham Danh, a Hoa Phu resident, speaks of Hoa Minh's "up" on street for 14 years but still keeps the four old village associations. Each village has its own flavor, but in the same direction, as the Secretary of the Party Committee - Chairman of the People's Committee of Hoa Minh Ward Nguyen Van Cuong is: Strict solidarity between families, educating descendants to live a religious life, preserve and promote the national cultural identity.
Each time we immerse ourselves in these humane activities, we thank the ancient people who founded the village association to now have something to contribute to creating the flavor of Danang's young street on the way of development and integration.
