The “Opinions” also require that the construction of county towns should be integrated into nature, conform to the original topography, do not dig mountains, do not fill rivers and lakes, do not destroy the original landscape environment, and maintain the landscape and natural features. To protect and restore the buffer zone of rivers and lakes and the natural curvature of the river, it is not allowed to develop and construct houses in the name of wind and rain covered bridges.
In terms of creating a humanized public environment, the “Opinions” stated that the scale of county squares should be strictly controlled, and the construction of public spaces in administrative centers, commercial areas, cultural facilities, and residential areas that are convenient for residents to use nearby; promote a “narrow road, dense road network” “Small blocks” to create a pleasant spatial scale for the county; to control the width of roads in the county, the width of the red line within the county should not exceed 40 meters.

Real estate market in Europe Construction is not booming everywhere

Status: 16.06.2021 2:01 p.m.

Construction is one of the boom industries in Germany even during the crisis. But what about in other European countries? Our correspondents report that the situation there is only partially comparable.

Poland: increasing demand, increasing prices

By Jan Pallokat, ARD studio Warsaw Anyone in Poland who thought that the corona pandemic would slow down the construction industry, which has been booming in the country for years, was caught on the wrong foot at the beginning of the year. Housing construction in particular is buzzing even more; In the first quarter, developers in major cities sold 40 percent more than in the previous year and three percent more than in the previous record year of 2017. And because the supply of modern living space still lags behind demand in the country, the sales prices achieved are also rising steadily: on average by almost eight percent for new buildings and six and a half percent for used residential property. The rising prices for building materials and an increasing shortage of staff also play a role here. Because construction workers are scarce, market experts are now warning that construction sites could be paralyzed in rows during the high season in summer. The downside of the building boom: home ownership is often unaffordable for young families. Already today, 43 percent of under 35-year-olds in Poland lived with their parents, the Eurostat statistics office recently reported. This puts Poland in the top group in the EU when it comes to “Hotel Mama” and is on a similar level to Italy.

Spain: no construction boom in sight

By Reinhard Spiegelhauer, ARD studio Madrid Construction boom and Spain – wasn’t there something? Yes, Spain has actually experienced an absolutely ludicrous construction boom – but that was 20 years ago. In the nineties and noughties, the number of planned apartments practically doubled from year to year – up to the highest level in 2006 with almost 900,000 apartments. Then came the big bang: the real estate bubble burst, banks had to be bailed out, Spain rushed past bankruptcy, hundreds of thousands could no longer service their real estate loans, apartments were evicted. The market then recovered very slowly. But still, roads, lamps and park benches built in boom times are rotting in many development areas. In 2019, the year before the corona pandemic, the foundation stones were laid for a good 100,000 apartments. Since then, however, the sector has largely been paralyzed again. Unemployment fell again after peaking at around 25 percent after the euro crisis, but it again reached 15 percent during the pandemic. For young adults it is more than 30 percent. According to experience from the times of the real estate bubble, far stricter criteria now apply to the granting of loans. All of this is currently preventing any kind of construction boom in Spain.

Switzerland: mainly redevelopment and densification

By Dietrich Karl Mäurer, ARD studio Zurich Instead of a “construction boom”, the umbrella association of the Swiss construction industry, Building Switzerland, speaks of “continuously good work”. A large part of the orders are so-called consolidations and energy-efficient building renovations. But not least because of the low interest rates, large investors like to invest in construction projects such as new building complexes with rental apartments. The demand is good, although there are vacancies in some rural regions. Housing is still in short supply in cities. This is also because net immigration has recently risen again; During the pandemic, many foreigners who actually wanted to leave the country after a certain period of time in Switzerland preferred to stay – mainly because of the comparatively difficult labor market conditions in their home countries. The construction industry accounts for ten percent of Switzerland’s economic output and employs around half a million skilled workers. According to a recent economic survey, the situation in the construction industry is stable. However, the limited availability of building materials and preliminary products could become a problem. Incidentally, real estate prices in Switzerland have risen faster than they have been in eight years.

Level 4 house with Thai roof with mezzanine in the countryside A model of a level 4 house with a mezzanine in the city Normally, level 4 houses are built on a modest ground, so the mezzanine design is considered an effective way to increase the usable area of ​​​​the house without causing its height to change. The mezzanine (or mezzanine floor, loft) is an intermediate floor, designed to connect with the ground floor and used as a space for resting, reading, worshiping… The model house level 4 has a mezzanine that is both beautiful and economical. Save the living space for the family as well as create a highlight for the house. Even if the owner uses the first floor for business, the living room can be moved to the mezzanine so that the family can both receive guests and observe the trading on the first floor. House space with mezzanine Currently, there are several types of mezzanines that are chosen by many people such as the front mezzanine, the side mezzanine and the in-room mezzanine. In particular, the front mezzanine is used a lot because it makes a strong impression when entering the living room, creating a new and attractive feeling. The mezzanine on the side brings novelty, uniqueness and personality, but must ensure the area is large enough because this type of design requires a spacious space. The mezzanine in the room is often arranged on the toilet, creating a workspace or reading place. However, to be able to find a beautiful mezzanine house design idea and suitable for the needs of the family, homeowners need to have a good construction plan. It is necessary to determine the available space, choose the most suitable material for the structure of the building and, importantly, choose the height of the mezzanine. It is necessary to avoid the design of the mezzanine that is too high or too low to affect the daily activities of family members. In addition, it is necessary to calculate in the most meticulous and detailed way the ventilation and air circulation capacity by using the appropriate light sources of the mezzanine. The height of the mezzanine must be suitable so as not to create a sense of mystery or shock for occupants. According to many architects, the height of the mezzanine should fall between 2.5m – 2.8m, the mezzanine should not be designed lower than this minimum height to avoid causing a feeling of mystery and suppression for users use; but also should not be too much higher because it makes people feel dizzy and lose their aesthetics. For a house with depth, homeowners can design a mezzanine located in the ground floor and used as a common living place. Floors with mezzanines usually have to be 4.5m – 5m high, mezzanine floors need to be designed to occupy 2/3 of the area of ​​a floor. Mezzanine design should not occupy more than 80% of the ground floor area. In particular, in Vietnam, when designing mezzanine floors, great attention must be paid so as not to violate the Construction Law; For example, if the owner fills the atrium in the mezzanine floor, it will be considered an act of building more than the allowed number of floors and will be fined. Some of the most popular indoor mezzanine models today:

Huynh Hong Loan’s share posted on social networks quickly attracted netizens. 3 years ago, Huynh Hong Loan bought the first house in District 6, HCMC. Although far from the center, the house was suitable for Hong Loan’s budget at that time. Not stopping there, she continued to aim to have a house closer to the center.

On the morning of June 10, the 13th Lujiazui Forum (2021), co-sponsored by the Shanghai Municipal People’s Government, the People’s Bank of China, the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, and the China Securities Regulatory Commission, opened in Shanghai.

At this forum, Guo Shuqing, Secretary of the Party Committee of the Central Bank and Chairman of the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, once again issued a severe warning on high-risk investments such as financial derivatives. He said:

In the case of financial derivatives where risks occurred in the previous period, a large number of individual investors participated in the investment. From the perspective of mature financial markets, institutional investors are mainly involved in financial derivatives investment, which is very unsuitable for personal investment and financial management. The reason is that, affected by a variety of uncontrollable or even unpredictable factors, the price of financial derivatives fluctuates greatly, which places high requirements on the professionalism and risk tolerance of investors.

The participation of ordinary individual investors is tantamount to gambling in disguise, and the result of the loss is already doomed. Those who speculate on foreign exchange, gold and other commodity futures will hardly have the opportunity to make a fortune, just as those who bet that house prices will never fall will eventually pay a heavy price.

In this passage, Guo Shuqing mainly warned individuals who speculate on the anticipation of RMB appreciation and the rise in commodity prices. Because these are the two major problems currently facing China.

There are very few ordinary people who really speculate in foreign exchange futures and commodity futures, and these people are indeed looking for a living on the tip of a knife. Instead, Guo Shuqing mentioned by the way that “people who bet that house prices will never fall will eventually pay a heavy price”, which is worth analyzing.

Among the senior financial officials in China, Guo Shuqing is known for his “daring to speak”. He basically talks about real estate several times a year, and he usually reminds him of risks.

For example, in August 2020, Guo published an article in the “Seeking Truth” magazine, stating that “the real estate bubble is the gray rhino that threatens financial security the most.”

In December 2020, Guo published an article titled “Improving the Modern Financial Supervision System”, proposing “resolutely curb the real estate bubble” and once again said that “real estate is the biggest gray rhino in terms of financial risks in my country at this stage.” He also mentioned in the article: “Of the more than 130 financial crises in the world since the last century, more than 100 are related to real estate.”

At the press conference held on March 2 this year, Guo once again pointed out: The core problem in the real estate sector is still relatively large bubbles, and the tendency of financialization to bubble is relatively strong. It is the biggest gray rhino in the financial system. Many people buy a house not to live, but to invest in speculation, which is very dangerous.

In short, Guo can be said to be “benevolent” and “benevolent” in reminding real estate risks.

According to the first quarter monetary policy implementation report of the Central Bank: At the end of March, the balance of real estate loans by major financial institutions nationwide was 50.0 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 10.9%. Among them, the balance of personal housing loans was 35.7 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 14.5%. Although the growth rate of these two types of loans has declined, they are still much faster than the actual growth rate of the economy.

So here comes the question: when Guo Shuqing said that “people who bet that house prices will never fall will eventually pay a heavy price”, when will it be fulfilled? Which houses are risky and cannot be bought?

According to the seventh census, as of November 1, 2020, the urbanization rate of the permanent population in China has reached 63.89% (the urbanization rate of the registered population is 45.4%). In the past 10 years, the urbanization rate of the permanent population has increased by 14.2 percentage points.

In recent years, the urbanization rate of the permanent population has been advancing at a rate of about 1% per year. From the perspective of China’s development stage, the urbanization rate of our permanent population peaks at around 70% to 75%. Calculated at 75%, there is still room for growth in about 12 years. Then, it will enter the “post-urbanization era”.

In fact, as the urbanization rate of the permanent population exceeds 60%, urban population growth has begun to diverge, and the population will accelerate into large urban agglomerations and metropolitan areas in the future.

In the Northeast, Midwest and other regions, the fourth and fifth tier cities and market towns that are not in large urban agglomerations, metropolitan areas, and market towns will accelerate the loss of population.

Above: According to the seventh census data of Sichuan, Gansu, and Hubei, most of the prefecture-level cities and prefectures have lost their population.

I reminded everyone a few years ago: less than 20% of the cities in China (counting counties) have investment value, and more than 80% of the cities have low value or pits.

In areas with severe population loss, future housing prices may be money for “demolition and sale of construction waste”. In some places, no one even collects construction waste for demolishing and selling construction waste.

Therefore, do not think that Chairman Guo Shuqing is alarmist, what he said is becoming a reality.

For example, the “Yumen Old City” we often refer to is a typical case of an abandoned city; as for Hegang, it is a case of an undisused but naturally shrinking city.

In April 2019, the National Development and Reform Commission put forward the concept of “shrinking cities” for the first time in the “Key Tasks of New Urbanization Construction in 2019”. The National Development and Reform Commission pointed out that shrinking small and medium-sized cities should lose weight and strengthen their bodies, change their inertial incremental planning thinking, strictly control the increase, activate the stock, and guide the population and public resources to concentrate in the urban area.

What do you mean? This actually means that the “shrinking cities” with continual population losses will merge villages, towns and counties in the future to bring the population together.

During the adjustment of administrative divisions in the past two years, the state has merged some districts and counties with small populations and sluggish growth. For example, in June 2020, the state made the following adjustments to the administrative divisions of Yantai:

Penglai City and Changdao County were abolished, and Penglai District of Yantai City was established. The former administrative area of ​​Penglai City and Changdao County was the administrative area of ​​Penglai District. .

In other words, Changdao County has disappeared.

Changdao County has a land area of ​​only 56.8 square kilometers and a permanent population of more than 40,000. In 2013, there were 1,151 primary school students in Changdao County. By 2019, the number had dropped to 856, a drop of 25.6%.

Such a population size, of course, cannot support the structure of a county. Across the country, there are about 100 counties (or county-level administrative regions) with a population of less than 40,000.

Once a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference proposed to merge counties with underpopulated populations (such as less than 100,000 people). She gave an example in the proposal: a county has a permanent population of 30,200 in 2019, local fiscal revenues of 36.61 million yuan, and general public budget expenditures of 865 million yuan , There are more than 120 administrative and social organizations, and more than 6,000 financial support personnel.

The cost and efficiency of maintaining such a county are too high, and it is of little significance.

It is conceivable that if you buy a house in such a county town or in a market town below the county town, the future prospects must be very pessimistic.

In fact, even in first-tier cities, such as Shanghai’s Chongming Island and Shenzhen’s Yantian Dapeng, some remote and poorly-equipped real estates have not risen for a long time, making buyers want to cry. Not to mention the suburbs and new districts of fifth- and sixth-tier cities in the Midwest.

Remember one thing: houses that can be delivered by courier and takeaway, and houses that are not too hard to take a taxi are valuable.

If a real estate is not only difficult for you to take a taxi, but also difficult for take-out and express delivery, then this kind of house basically has no investment value, and even you do not want to live for a long time.

I used to tell readers in my articles that if you choose suburban or Xinpan real estate, there must be a subway within 800 meters, a shopping mall within 3 kilometers, and schools and kindergartens within 2 kilometers. Otherwise, try not to buy it. Of course, this is a higher requirement than being able to deliver food or express delivery.

In addition, cities that are not eligible to repair subways (light rails) generally have little investment value.

In short: Try to buy houses in high-level cities (and their metropolitan areas) that have a significant population increase in areas that the government attaches importance to, with better facilities.

Moreover, do not have the intention of short-term speculation, do not excessively increase leverage, and do not follow the evil path of holding a house or buying a house under the name. As long as you choose the right city and have a steady cash flow, your investment risk is very easy to manage and your future will be bright.

The model of 4-level house with Thai roof is quite popular in Vietnam. The advantages of these houses are effective heat resistance and good moisture resistance. However, the cost of building 4-level houses with Thai roofs is higher than other types of roofs. The construction also needs to be meticulous, careful and takes more time. In return, 4-level houses with Thai roofs have a modern style, different from those with corrugated iron or flat roofs. It brings a sense of peace to the viewer. Level 4 house with garden and garage The model house level 4 has a garden and a garage that offers many amenities in living. For families with a large land fund, this model should be chosen. With only an area of ​​about 100m2, you can completely arrange the functions of the house completely including: living room, kitchen, 3 bedrooms, bathroom, WC and garage or garden. Designing too many rooms but not using them will cause waste. Meanwhile, if you take advantage of the area to make a garden, you will have green space in the house. The natural space will help you have moments of rest, relaxation, enjoy life, reduce the pressure and fatigue of work. Model level 4 house with mezzanine If the land area is limited and cannot meet the needs of the family, you can design an additional mezzanine area to expand the space.

American style 4-level house model The American-style 4-level house looks quite similar to Vietnamese style and architecture from the outside. That is why this model is also chosen by many families. Usually, the small houses will be built adjacent to each other to form a unique architecture, the colors are gentle in harmony with nature. The expansion of the house space is also very similar to the traditional horizontal house of Vietnam. In addition, this type of house aims to be close to nature. There are lawns, gardens, etc. to help keep the space fresh.

Architect G+architects said that the project, in addition to creating a common space that connects everyone in the family, also needs to ensure a certain privacy for them. Because the house is in the northwest direction, the architect offered a solution to design a wooden door system throughout the facade to limit direct sunlight combined with internal glass doors. Both layers of doors can be opened and closed flexibly to regulate sunlight and wind into the house and increase the interaction between interior and exterior space. The house is located in a quiet residential area in Ho Chi Minh City, built on an area of ​​110 m2. The house is designed with two-layer facade, the inner layer is a glass door, the outer layer is a wooden lamination system. During the day, the sun penetrates the blue system and prints shadows on the interior space. At night, the wooden bar creates a blurry view from the outside into the interior space, ensuring privacy but equally interesting. As for the space solution, the common spaces on the ground floor and the second floor are opened up to get more light for family activities. In addition, it also creates a contrast in proportion between the public and private volumes in the spatial layout of the house. The idea of ​​establishing the relationship between the public and the private space is also through the solution of soft separation by movable walls creating continuity for the library and indoor playground functions. Thereby, users can actively control the limitations in space. This is also convenient for ventilation from front to back of the building. With this work, architect G+architects shared: “We want to show the concepts in space definition that adapt to the different living habits of the homeowner along with architectural solutions for each climate context. Queen.” Wood slats It is not only an effective vertical ventilation system but also has the ability to limit the amount of heat entering the house. The ground floor is used as living room, kitchen, dining room and auxiliary functional spaces.

A South Yorkshire auction house recently put up for sale a three-bedroom house inundated by a sea of ​​trash after it had been abandoned for five years in the Sheffield suburb of Hillsborough for £110,000 (equivalent to 3.6 billion). copper). According to the auctioneer, the house was fully furnished, but the furniture soon rotted and was no longer usable. Therefore, if you want to turn it into your home, the buyer will have to manually clean up the mountains of garbage in the house. The house has 3 floors including cellar, kitchen and living room on the ground floor, three bedrooms and a family bathroom on the upper floor. However, everything is now extremely messy and dirty, even the kitchen has rusted and yellowed. The wallpaper of the house has been peeled off, revealing old brick walls. The house also had a garden in the backyard but it was overgrown with trees and weeds. According to the introduction, the house is located in a prime location because it is close to bars, restaurants, convenience stores as well as tram and bus stations, so homeowners can easily move to the city center. It’s not a long way to go. After the abandoned house flooded with garbage was for sale on social networks, many people said that they were extremely shocked by the investor’s marketing. “It’s crazy, I will never buy a house like this dump, especially its price is ‘heavenly’, this business idea really shocked me”, “Abandoned house This is no longer usable, it has to be demolished to build a new one, how can the seller post a ruined picture of the house like that, I can’t believe it”, “If you give me the house, I will also ask for permission to return the furniture. interior”, … some sarcastic accounts.

Here, the house is divided into 5 parts that are almost equal in length. And the real living space for birthdays (eating, sleeping) only accounts for two parts, the remaining three are almost empty for the front yard, back yard and skylight, garden.

Trees help reduce the heat on summer days, bring fresh air into the house, create comfort for residents. One of the simple ways to bring nature into the house is to design an airy space with lots of openings and wide doors to let the wind circulate. Besides, using good light-absorbing materials such as glass, bright plastic to bring natural light into the house. Trees may be few but arranged in appropriate positions, taking advantage of small trees that can be hung in windows, atriums… Using every pine space to plant trees is the best way to bring nature into the house.

Do not plant many plants in the bedroom because trees absorb O2 and emit CO2, if planted too much will make it difficult for people to breathe when the door is closed. In addition, for small houses, wind and light are even more essential. Therefore, we need to design the house so that natural light enters the house and good ventilation” – Architect Khuong Van Muoi shared. In addition, architect Huynh Bao Toan, Director of a mobile home supplier, shared: In order to bring nature into a small house, in addition to planting trees, homeowners should arrange it reasonably and simply. For small houses, placing too many bulky items will make the space cramped, making it difficult for the air to circulate. Therefore, it is recommended to use simple furniture, smart furniture because they help the house become more spacious and airy. “A suitable arrangement of furniture will have more green space. Currently, the use of smart furniture is very popular, for example, using a sofa in combination with a bed, a dining table with a desk to take up less space,” shared architect Huynh Bao Toan.

I see trees of green Red roses too I see them bloom For me and you And I think to myself What a wonderful world … When he woke up, Quang Sang (24 years old) reached for his phone and played a song. The melodious tune filled the apartment he rented for about 3 months. Lightly open the windows so that the wind can flow into the house. In the morning, you can hear the sound of traffic down the road, the nearby toad market or the kids in the house calling each other to go to school. Morning calls the sound of old houses is a charm that he cannot refuse. The boy ‘falls in love’ with the beauty of old houses Located on the 5th floor, Sang rented this dormitory for 5 million VND. He cleaned and decorated himself to create a living space according to his liking. To save money, Morning picks up old things wherever he can find from sofas, pictures or statues … “I quite like the repair and redecoration of the house. Maybe that’s why I think of something every day to do, ”said Sang, smiling. Not only living in a dormitory, he also rented two other apartments to trade in drinks in Hanoi. 9:30 am am present at my small coffee shop with Chau. Three years ago, with 1 million dong in hand, the two decided to borrow more money to open their own coffee shop. He was only 21 years old. Located on the 3rd floor of a dormitory, Sang’s shop doesn’t even have billboards. “The first days when I finished paying the rent, I got out of my pocket. Tables and chairs, decorations … are all begging. Occasionally, Chau and I would go to the street, even in the garbage dump, and bring good things to the shop ”, Sang recalled a difficult time before and recounted. With such old homes, getting them repaired before going into business usually takes a lot of time and money. But with Morning, to keep the breath of the houses, he chose not to interfere too much in that space. The only thing that Sang did when he arrived was to repair the electricity and water lines or widen a few windows to make the space more open. With Sang, the most difficult thing is how to keep a quiet space for the whole area. Understand that spirit, visitors to the shop always “go lightly, speak softly”. The bar space becomes a place to relax and enjoy the peace. So every day, in the morning, I will go to one of the two drinks to work and then return to my small room at the end of the day. “I have my own things in the noisy city, my heart is as quiet as the old house, that’s enough for me,” said Sang. Business in dormitory So far, business in the dormitory is no stranger. People have become accustomed to shops like Sang’s: without signs, hidden in old rooms. In 2012, Ms. Le Thuy Hanh (1992) had her first fashion store. All of them are clothes she designed and sewed and embroidered by herself. Hanh rented an old house and then renovated it to create a business space. Part of the wall is beaten most to change into a glass door, absorbing much light into the room. To avoid moldy because the house is old, Ms. Hanh fixed both the ceiling and the floor. “The hardest part about running a house with no signboard like this is that it’s hard for customers to find. But fortunately, one person spreads the word, my shop still welcomes new customers every day. Those were really interesting surprises, “shared Ms Hanh. On Sunday, the whole family of Kim Lien (31 years old) was present at the small store. This 80 m2 apartment is rented by her for 7 million VND / month. With the rent not too high and the large floor area, the dormitory becomes the ideal place for Ms. Lien’s small shop. Taking advantage of the light of the hallway, in her spare days, Ms. Lien displays her furniture, then takes pictures for her products. “I can’t stand the noise of vehicles, so doing business in the dormitory is quite suitable for me,” Lien said with a laugh. Due to the epidemic, the number of visitors to the store is not much, Ms. Lien sells mainly online. Having a day off, she let her two daughters out. The children were excitedly playing with her while Mrs. Lien and her husband were eager to clean up the store. During working days all day, she does not forget to bring some food and cook at work. Not far away is the electronics repair shop of Mr. Nguyen Dang Duyen (age 83). Tucked neatly in the basement of an old dormitory, Mr. Nguyen Dang Duyen’s workplace is sprawled with a fan, kettle, television, … After years of fighting in Quang Tri battlefield, veteran Nguyen Dang Duyen returned to his daily life like many other peaceful people. The entrance is only over 1 m wide, and there are no billboards, but one person tells the other, Duyen’s electric appliance repair shop is so crowded every day. He was provided by the government for an apartment of about 20 m2 on the 4th floor. So every day, Mr. Duyen went to the first floor to work, then went back to the house with his wife to eat and take care of the trees. “My work, my life is tied to this building. It was as old as me. We were just like that in the city, ”said Duyen happily. Not only doing business inside the apartment, but the yard is also used as a parking point. Parking in a dormitory is considered a relatively stable business. Because in order to keep the living space quiet, most families register to park the car with the service price of 200,000 VND / month. Life in the dormitory in the heart of the city After 1956, the dormitory model appeared for the first time in Hanoi. Until now, many people still choose this place to live, business … because of the cheap price and peaceful atmosphere that old houses bring in the heart of bustling Hanoi. The close golden walls, the yellow peeling paint, the rusted iron frame confirm the place of the dormitory’s timestamp. This has become a living and bonding place for many generations of families. “Peace and quiet” are two words that Mr. Do Quang Dai tells about the life of more than 30 years associated with the house in the Government Inspectorate on Van Bao Street. As a retired officer, in 1990, Mr. Dai was granted housing by the State. Since then, Mr. Dai and his wife and children have lived there. Later, his children got married, separated to live separately, sometimes sending his grandchildren to take care of them. Talking about the dormitory in Hanoi, Mr. Dai remembers the image of pots and green vegetables neatly planted and watered every day. And the laughter of children playing around, growing up in buildings has gone through those years of ups and downs. “The dormitory in the past is very valuable. Now it is outdated, the city is more modern, people love the comfort and the new”, Mr. Dai shared. But because he had been attached to the house for so long, he did not have the heart to move. In his free time, Mr. Dai recites a poem written about the old collective area of ​​poet Luu Quang Vu: “The house is only a few square meters, books are lined up next to the pot If you dream, you touch your hand to touch the barrel of rice Small wall box hangs pictures and hangs clothes I only have a few square yards for my happiness … ”

Old town is the first place to visit for tourists from all over the world when coming to Hanoi. They are curious about the old beauty of Hanoi, a thousand years of civilization. However, hidden behind the noisy and bustling features of the shops growing up close by, are the dark, microscopic alleys. Those are small, deep alleys, just one person. Entering each small alley is like stepping into a tunnel, groping forever without seeing the sun. Especially, in Hang Buom street, deep and narrow alleyways appear alternately. The way a large frontage house to an alley. The narrowest section width is nearly 50-60 cm. Ngo Brick Street, Hoan Kiem District – this place is known to many people for its tiny alleys when their width is less than 50 cm. Through this dark “tunnel” are the houses lurking behind. These small alleys form hundreds of hundreds of years. Hanoians are also accustomed to this cramped lifestyle. Households enjoy the same living space and collective kitchen. Every house door is close together. Few people can imagine that in that seemingly small alley, there are people who accept to live with darkness and humidity. This is house No. 34, Phat Loc alley, according to people living here, the house of Hoan Kiem factory is considered to be the oldest and the worst in Hang Buom ward. Mrs. Nguyen Thi Tuan lives in a 12m2 house at 32, Phat Loc (Hang Buom Ward, Hoan Kiem District, Hanoi) for nearly 40 years. “I have lived here since the day I came back as a bride. This house my mother-in-law rented from the State, only 12m2, but for 4 generations … “ “Now the house has deteriorated a lot, the walls are loose, damp, when there are heavy rains, the house leaks, the windows are beaten by the wind”, Ms. Tuan said. Her husband spent more than 10 years, Mrs. Tuan alone took care of the whole family. She said: “There is no new rent, but living conditions like this are too much, I just hope to have a policy of relaxing people so that the whole family can move to a new place”. Because the house is so small, she makes use of the area next to no one to rent. In the same situation, living in house 34, Phat Loc, is still a lot of tenants. Ms. Zhao Tieu Hoa (77 years old) shared: “I have been staying in this house for 70 years. Now the children also live in this house “. Despite her old age, Ms. Hoa is daily groping for her way in the dark “cellar” going up and down to cook rice in the first floor collective kitchen. Over half of her life, with Mrs. Hoa, life is like that. “Enough, do not want to change anymore”. This is the house of Mrs. Nguyen Thi Ty (85 years old) at 96 Hang Buom. The house is only 9m2, and below is the kitchen, the toilet, above is the attic for her to sleep. “I have lived here since 1957, the day before, a family of seven lived here. Later, my children got married to live separately, I lived here alone. Sometimes my children and grandchildren would come home to visit their mother, ”said Mrs. Ty. According to observation, in these lane areas there are many degraded houses, in addition to the interlocking electrical system, the tubular house has no escape route, the fire alarm system is not equipped with potentially many fire risks. explosive. According to statistics in the Hoan Kiem district, there are more than 1,000 alleys and alleys so small that only one person can pass. There are even alleys that people passing by have to stoop, wriggle, look very miserable, but it is normal of the people of the old town. Living so cramped, dark, but many people still accept and satisfied because it seems to have become a habit, a cultural feature of Hanoi Old Quarter.

According to interior expert Nguyen Hien, the first thing to do is to refurbish the house. If it is a rundown house, you can repair and repaint the house to help the space no longer look damp, old. After the house has been dressed in a new coat, you can choose the right paint color for the interior space. Interior expert Nguyen Hien said bright colors such as white, light gray, light blue, and light yellow will make the space appear spacious, bright and luxurious than dark colors.

In addition, you should also minimize the interior to not create a stuffy look for the space. You can use smart furniture, which are integrated with many functions to both meet your needs and save space. Some items you should use are a foldable dining table, a bed with a drawer or a bunk bed if the house has many people. These are all popular products these days, so you can easily buy them in furniture stores.

Finally, to help open the space, you need to make the most of natural light from windows. If it’s a house with lots of windows, you won’t need to worry too much. However, if there are only 1-2 windows, you should arrange the living room and bedroom with windows to ensure that the main living rooms always have fresh light and air.

Currently, there are still many level 4 houses and to improve living space, interior renovation is the right thing to do. Therefore, hopefully with the advice of interior specialist Nguyen Hien, you will be able to own a modern space for your grade 4 house!

In which, the Provincial People’s Committee supported 12,3 billion VND to build 40 models; the district supported people and cooperatives with 12.1 billion dong to build 76 models. Thereby, 100 net houses, membrane houses in Viet Tien commune, only Minh Tam General Agricultural Cooperative (referred to as Minh Tam Cooperative) has 30 houses to be built and put into use.

Despite a large investment, after a period of operation, most of the film houses, especially net houses, are ineffective. Currently, most of the net houses are left empty and torn. Many households voluntarily dismantle the steel frame and change the crop structure, wrong for the original purpose.

After the newspaper stated, the People’s Committee of Viet Yen district instructed the District Department of Agriculture and Rural Development to coordinate with the People’s Committee of Viet Tien commune to review and inspect the reality, invite Minh Tam Cooperative and the households to change the purpose of using net houses by themselves. job.

Mr. Ngo Xuan Trung, Vice Chairman of Viet Tien Commune People’s Committee, said on April 6 and April 14, the functions of the district and the commune People’s Committee invited representatives of Minh Tam Cooperative (the unit assigned by the District People’s Committee to be in charge of net houses, diaphragm houses in the area) and 9 households using net houses against the original commitment (in two villages of Chang and Ha) to the office to clarify the reasons for conversion and production orientation.

The torn net house area of ​​Minh Tam Cooperative has yet to be repaired.

Ms. Nguyen Thi Tu, Director of Minh Tam Cooperative, said that the reason for the rapid failure of the net is that the net house is not suitable for the sub-region here. Because this area often occurs strong winds that make the net quickly torn and torn. Minh Tam Cooperative as well as other households have invested in repairing, replacing but still ineffective. Due to the loss of intensive farming of vegetables (low selling price, crop failure …), farmers and cooperatives have changed crops.

At the working sessions, the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development of Viet Yen district and the People’s Committee of Viet Tien commune requested Minh Tam Cooperative and the households to self-overcome, remove perennial trees, replant vegetables, tubers and fruits according to the original commitment. . The time to complete the remedy is before May 30, 2021.

The People’s Committee of Viet Tien commune also informs households participating in the project of building plastic houses and net houses in the area: If any household does not do this, they will be recorded in writing and sanctioned according to regulations. Households whose contracts have expired will be liquidated by the District Department of Agriculture and Rural Development and the People’s Committee of Viet Tien Commune.

Requesting Minh Tam Cooperative to remove torn, damaged nets and cover new nets before April 10; cleaning roads, canals and ditches in the net house area before April 24, 2021; directing staff to regularly check, grasp and guide member households and associate with the cooperative to grow vegetables, tubers and fruits in net houses, not to leave empty land.

Up to this point, Minh Tam Cooperative has not recovered the torn nets, covered with new nets as directed. Because according to Ms. Tu: “If we cover the net, we have to spend about 900 million dong so the cooperative doesn’t have the money to do it”. Households also reported that they do not have the budget to stretch new nets and apply for changing land use purposes because they have invested a lot of money to plant perennial trees.

Households participating in the project voluntarily converting crops for the wrong purpose were invited to the office of the People’s Committee of Viet Tien commune to work in the afternoon of April 14.

Talking about this issue, Mr. Than Van Thuan, Vice Chairman of the People’s Committee of Viet Yen district, said that the main reason leading to Minh Tam Cooperative and households participating in the net house project, the ineffective production is due to The cooperative has not yet built a preliminary processing area, cold storage for agricultural products, so the cooperative cannot sign production contracts with households and businesses (DN) for consumption.

To overcome this, the locality will soon request the Provincial People’s Committee to approve the planning of the preliminary processing zone, so that the district will have grounds to support the construction of this area. This is the basis for Minh Tam Cooperative to be eligible to sign production contracts with households and purchasing enterprises. Regarding net houses whose frame has been removed and the purpose of use changed, Mr. Thuan affirmed that he will give statistics, make records and strictly deal with it, requiring net owners to restore the status quo and grow vegetables and crops according to project. “We are determined to restore the efficiency of the greenhouse and net houses as soon as possible,” said Thuan.

The investment in building high-tech agricultural production zone is the right policy. However, the net houses and plastic houses are ineffective, some of them have changed their use purpose for a long time due to lack of management. Hopefully, local rights, cooperatives and people participating in the project will soon join hands to overcome, avoid wasting investment capital.

Yaxi Ancient Village is located in Longyuanba Town, Quannan County, Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province. It is about 22 kilometers away from the county seat of Quannan County. It can be reached by car in about half an hour. If you don’t know the ancient village of Yaxi, you will think this village is very new, so many people think that it is a completely new village. In fact, it is not. Although the ancient town looks very new, if you look at its history, it can be traced back to the Ming Dynasty. . At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the ancestor of the Chen family, Lu Gong, moved from Jinling to Kaiji in southern Jiangxi, and his fifth grandson, Chen Wenxin, separated from Yaxi during the Chenghua period. At present, it has been included in the fourth batch of Chinese traditional villages list, and it is an ancient village with eight years of history.

As soon as I entered the ancient village of Yaxi, there was a very grand welcome ceremony. The old grandfather dressed in Yao costumes led everyone to the entrance of the village to greet him. Although the old grandfather looked very kind, he spoke loudly and powerfully. “The place is not as elegant as here, stop and retrain and take a leisurely time.” This is the beautiful rural life described by Wang Yangming, a writer of the Ming Dynasty. Now it appears on the Yingbin Stone at the head of the ancient town of Yaxi, and it has become the reality of the ancient village of Yaxi. Portrayal.

After the elder’s welcome opening remarks, there was a group of young girls in Yao costumes who said that ethnic minorities can sing and dance, and the Yao people are no exception. Although these girls are young, they have very good dance skills. These little girls danced Yao’s unique dance, filled with youthful enthusiasm and smiles, and also formed a sharp contrast with the old and vigorous old man before, and the visual impact was very strong.

In addition to the performance staff, there are also sisters and grandmothers in Yao costumes who are drying the grass. They are especially immersive, as if they are traveling back to a thousand-year-old village. However, I am not familiar with grass and I don’t know it is drying. What on earth, if you have an erudite or a local Yao friend, please tell me, and let everyone learn and have a long experience.

There is also a performance in Yaxi Ancient Village worth seeing, which is the dragon dance performance on the square. This performance restores the sacrificial rituals of the ancient Yao people. If you are careful, you can find that although they are all dragon dances, the dragon dance of the ancient Yao people is different from other places. The main difference lies in the “dragon”, the ancient Yao people The dragon is woven from haystacks. It is said that in addition to sacrificial offerings, the ancient Yao people would dance dragons whenever they encounter important festive days or when important guests come to visit. This is considered to be the inheritance of traditional culture.

Since the ancient town of Yaxi is a thousand-year-old town, apart from the inherited culture, are there any ancient buildings handed down? Really, these are the two enclosed houses in the Qing Dynasty in the village. It can be said that the entire ancient village exists because of these two enclosed houses. Many people will ask, what is the difference between a fenced house and a tulou? In fact, enclosed houses and earthen buildings are one of the three major schools of Hakka architecture. They not only use different materials, but also have different distribution areas. Although both have the function of living and defending against enemies, generally enclosed houses focus on life, while earth buildings are defenses. The fortifications are stronger, and the enclosure can be divided into Tu Wai and Shi Wei according to different building materials. Fuxing Wai is one of the Tu Wai.

Tuwei Fuxingwei is the earlier one of the two enclosed houses in Yaxi Ancient Village. It was built during the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty. It was a square rammed-earth brick structure built by Chen Shoushuo and Chen Shouying’s uncle and nephew. It seems to give people a very strong feeling, because of the rammed-earth brick wall structure, it is also called “earth enclosure”. The entire building is three stories high, with 17 rooms on each floor. The inner ring corridors are installed on the second and above floors. The design is very compact and unique, but tourists are not allowed to go upstairs without permission.

On the first floor is the Hakka Culture Museum, which not only displays Hakka folk customs, but also includes Hakka intangible cultural heritage, weddings and funerals, and traditional customs of the New Year holidays. If you are interested in Hakka culture, you may wish to Take a look around here, you will definitely get a lot of gains.

Another enclosed house in the ancient village is called “Yafengwei”, also known as Shiwei. It was constructed later than Tuwei. It was built in the northeast of Tuwei by Chen Shouying’s son Chen Xianxue during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty. The fourth floor is one floor higher than Tuwei, but there are only 13 rooms on each floor, which looks a lot smaller than Tuwei, so it is also known as “Xiaojiabiyu”.

Yafengwei’s granite gate and exquisite wood carvings and stone carvings are superb, and the empty brick cannon horns, fire attack devices, etc. all show its outstanding fortifications, which is unique among the Gannan fenced houses. , The second floor is still not allowed to visit casually, but there is a “Twenty-Four Solar Terms” exhibition hall inside the enclosure, which integrates farming culture, Hakka folk culture and Twenty-Four Festivals, which is very interesting.

In addition to the two enclosed houses, there are many other buildings in Yaxi Ancient Village, such as the farming culture exhibition area showing farming culture. Agricultural tools such as plows, rakes and stone mills can be seen here, and there is also a small building. The courtyard and an old house were rebuilt into Yaxi Academy. It contains nearly 10,000 books and is divided into three areas: book collection, reading, and lectures. Not only that, there are many ancient houses in the village, and there are still villagers living in these ancient houses. Therefore, Yaxi Ancient Village can be regarded as a living millennium ancient village.

Having said so much, do you think this ancient village that combines Hakka culture and Yao culture is particularly interesting? If you also like Kayao culture, come and check in at Yaxi Ancient Village! You can also rent a set of Yao clothes and be an authentic Yao for a day in Yaxi Ancient Village.

To protect the ancient house is not only the efforts and efforts of the homeowner, but it is necessary to enter and care of the functional branches …

Unique cultural “heritage” of a countryside

Located next to the romantic O Lau river with three sides bordering the river, Hoi Ky village was established about 500 years ago. Considered land “Spirit of masterpieceSo this place is chosen by many mandarins, landlords, and wealthy families as the place to build land and build a house.

Taking us around the village, Mr. Nguyen Be, Secretary of the Branch, Head of Hoi Ky village said that each house of Hoi Ky ancient communal house has its own unique spirit of ancient architecture and lifestyle. To make these unique homes, its owners have to store wood for many years.

Those are the types preous wood Chosen for size color, block-tight box. The craftsman chosen to build a house must also be highly skilled. Every detail, even the smallest, of the house is meticulously designed.

In particular, according to many people, when the house is completed, when the house is checked and accepted, the owner will use a large mug of water to pour into the joint position between the wooden pillars. The house is rated when water does not flow through those locations; If the water is leaking, the landlord will “arrest” the worker. Therefore, each old house is an expensive and enthusiastic work of art, valuable in terms of history, culture, architectural art of both the builder and the owner.

Designed in the form of 3 rooms with 2 wings or 1 room with 2 wings, the middle room for ancestor worship and reception desk, the Western room for men to live and the East room for women to live, the houses here are all bearing signs The private countryside of the Central region when there is a mezzanine known as “tra” to store rice, rice, utensils and is a shelter for families when flood water rises.

Hoi Ky schoolhouse has a distinctive design with many typical architectural elements such as roofing with tile; the textbook door opened and closed like a book; The system of incense sticks, columns, trusses, racks are elaborately carved according to the aesthetic of the homeowner, depending on the class of mandarins or landlords to have suitable and diverse patterns …

Away from the bustling life of the city, to the old house of Mr. Nguyen Tien Dung (56 years old), Hoi Ky village, Hai Chanh commune, visitors may think they are lost in the past with the areca trusses. rows of betel nuts, yellow apricot trees in front of the alley and green tea trees are carefully trimmed.

Mr. Dung is a descendant of the 5th generation teacher Do, one of the famous people in the village in the past. Carrying out ancestral training, up to now, many generations of Mr. Dung’s family have preserved and kept the old house order. His house has a panel called “Four great roads” roughly translated as 4 generations of father-son-grandchildren always living in the same house. This is the advice and desire of the person who gave birth to this house to send to generations and descendants.

Currently, Mr. Dung’s family has two old-school houses, in which the main house in the middle of a room with two roofs is still relatively intact, but the other house has been modified and restored to serve the needs of use. like preserving the house.

Mr. Dung confided: Carrying out the teaching of his ancestors, his family is still trying to keep the house order according to instructions. Currently, the most difficult problem in preserving and conserving ancient traditional houses is the severity of natural calamities, especially before storms and floods like last year. Not only his family’s communal house, but also other families were severely degraded, and the structure of the house was damaged.

It is very difficult to preserve the old traditional traditional houses, when the cost is very high and skilled workers are very rare. The temporary way in the short term is to keep the ancient system of the old chest intact and repair damaged places with bricks, cement …

Mr. Dung said his family had to repair many details such as the roof, the body, the front porch support system … to be able to serve the needs of using as well as protect the house.

Hundred year old school house conservation

In the two old houses of the Dung family, the East house was repaired with a concrete wall, the floor was re-tiled with flower tiles, the tile was also new in a modern style instead of tile. double-door instead of scientific door … However, the system of trusses and ancient chest is still intact with separate motifs. For the main house in the center, it still retains the ancient features, has not been affected much in the structure and construction structure. However, the system of pillars on the front porch and wall was repaired, renovated, built with cement …

Like Mr. Dung’s, Duong Quang Dan’s house is also in a similar situation, although the system of the communal house still remains unique because the system of ancient temples over 100 years old, scientific doors and tile …

However, due to the time factor, the house was degraded, Mr. Dan also restored the house to suit the needs of use. The 4-pillar system in front of the eaves has been rebuilt with concrete, the side of the house is rebuilt with cement walls, the floors are tiled with flowers … This is the common feature of most ancient houses in Hoi Ky village today. . In order to suit the needs of use as well as overcome the impact of time and natural disasters, most ancient houses are renovated and remodeled by the owner.

With a unique imprint on the personality and soul of a countryside from the time of opening and setting up a hamlet, but today, this communal house is facing the fierce of time and natural disasters. Currently, many houses have been seriously degraded. Besides, the repairs encountered many difficulties when the implementation cost was very high. Most of the houses are renovated in the form of renovation when it is not possible to restore the original condition according to the original design.

Mr. Bui Van Sinh, Chairman of Hai Chanh Commune People’s Committee, said the biggest difficulty in preserving the throne ancient communal house Currently, they are not properly preserved but mainly rely on the restoration of the house owner. Because of the difficulties in the maintenance and maintenance funding, many families want to sell old traditional houses because of the above reasons.

Facing this situation, the commune held propaganda and advocated people not to sell but to take measures to protect and preserve for the next generations. The commune government is also working with the Hai Lang District Department of Culture and Information to develop a project to connect Thac Cho – ancient village of Hoi Ky. Hopefully, the development of tourism will bring economic efficiency, help people restore, repair and protect as well as contribute to promoting the beauty of Hoi Ky ancient village to tourists from near and far.

The Hoi Ky ancient communal house system is a unique culture left behind by the ancestors’ generation that needs to be preserved and passed on to the next generation. However, to accomplish this, it is necessary to enter the conservation functions according to the original values ​​of the old traditional houses.
