Nem Con - Vietnamese Folk Games
Vietnamese Folk Games
Along with the rapid development of urbanization and the invasion of Western culture is the disappearance of traditional villages and rice fields in Vietnam where people had nurtured and enriched the distinctive agriculture culture for thousands of years. Nowadays, we can only see the traditional games in some festivals and sadly, most of the kids do not even know the names of these used-to-be very familiar, healthy and exciting entertainments. This list video will show you about what and how Vietnamese people play in the past.
1.Nem Con
According to Tay legend, Pia, an orphan, was poor and lonely. Discouraged with life, he went to the forest and gathered pieces of fruit to throw around. One time, he threw a fruit so high and it flew straight to heaven, where a fairy caught it. The fairy came down to the earth to play with Pia. In the end, they fell in love and became husband and wife. To celebrate this story, young men and women toss balls (qua con) each year from the third day of Tet until the end of the first lunar month.
On a flat and vast field, an apricot wood pole 8-15m high will be placed. On the top of the pole, there is a ring about 30-40cm in diameter, wrapped by paper. While the people stand on the ground with the “con” balls which are carefully made and decorated will try to throw them high through the ring for good luck.
