Son Ho Communal House

Son Ho Communal House (address in Chu Xa Hamlet, Bat Trang Commune) is an artistic architectural and historical relic ranked at the City level under Decision No. 4812/QD-UBND dated November 30, 2007. Located in Chu Xa Hamlet, the communal house worships a local deity who made great contributions in helping the people ward off disasters and reclaim land to establish the former Son Ho settlement. The architecture of the communal house features the simple, liberal carvings characteristic of late architectural art in the Red River Delta, with a thickly tiled roof and a solid three-bay, two-wing structure. Son Ho Communal House preserves valuable royal edicts along with a number of ancient ritual objects of profound value for social history research. The project is on the City's strict conservation list; its infrastructure is currently relatively solid thanks to the regular maintenance attention of the hamlet management board and the close joint preservation efforts of local residents.
