Vong Vieng Fishing
Village
Location:
Halong Bay- Vietnam
Pictures, description of the
Vong Vieng Fishing Village
Bai Tu Long and the Vung Vieng Fishing Village is off the beaten
tourist track as it is not so near to the popular Cat Ba Island
which has lodging, beaches and nearby caves where most of the large
tour companies and boats operate.
There are about 50 families; the population is between 200 and 300
residents. This includes nearly 100 children.
These families have lived in this village for generations. The
language is Vietnamese. The village is a "floating village." There
are no structures built on land. The village is very poor.
Traditionally income for food and potable water (imported from the
mainland) came solely from fishing. Now, there is some supplemental
income from tourism also.
There are 4 fishing villages in the World Heritage site: Ba Hang,
Cua Van, Vong Vieng and Cap La.
Vong Vieng is the less touristy.
After disembark the mother boat, you will be transfer by rowing
boats, tender boats, or doing kayaking to enter Vong Vieng fishing
village. After enter the village gate (see the picture), you have a
chance to experience the villagers’ daily life as well as the
traditional culture and customs of the fishermen, who live in the
World Heritage Area of Halong Bay.
Their floating houses look spacious and clean. The well-off families
even have tiled roof houses with radios, television sets, tables and
chairs, etc. There is one community house here where villagers come
to have meetings. Here is also the place tourists stopover to shop
some traditional hand made items.
With the support of the tourists and travel companies like Indochina
Junk, First Choice, Footprints, the village boasts a training
establishment for their children. Over an area of 100m2 lies one
classroom and one small room for teachers.
It is interesting to see the rambunctious children going to
“school”. Their bustling calling and their flopping rowing liven up
the atmosphere of the quite bay. Looking at the small boats driven
by tiny oars going to school, and the radiant faces of the children,
one feels confident in a bright future for the fishing village.
Tourist can drop some notebooks, pens to the village children.
