Location: Tuy Loan Communal House is
located in Tuy Loan Village, Hoa Phong Commune, Hoa Vang District, Danang City.
Characteristics: Tuy Loan Communal House was built in the late 18th
century and rebuilt in the year of Mau Ty (1988).
Tuy Loan Communal House is used to worship the village tutelary god and bygone
and recent time sages. In the old days, the people held a ceremony at the house
to welcome spring on the 14th and 15th of the second month of the lunar calendar
and autumn on the 14th and 15th of the eighth month of the lunar calendar. At
present, Tuy Loan Communal House is unique in that it preserves 15 honors dating
from Minh Mang�s Reign and Bao Dai�s Reign. The house covers an area of
110m� with brick walls and a panties roof. It is decorated with two dragons
flanking a moon and flying dragons encrusted with shards of pottery. The
interior has three sections and there are two lean-tos, the rear one of which is
2.4m wide and 2.7m long. It has four rows of jack tree wood pillars, each of
which has six pillars from 2.5 to 4.5m high. The structure of the rafters is
patterned after �Chong ruong � Gia thu�. The pillars against the walls are
carved with stylized floral designs and their bases are decorated with pumpkin
shapes. At the two sides, the roof beams are decorated with a dragon�s head,
and the tie beams of floating clouds, daisies and peonies reflecting their
artistic value. In the resistance war against the French, Tuy Loan Communal
House was the place where the local people and those in the neighboring villages
of Ba Ban and Cam Toai held a demonstration and usurped the power of the
district chief of Hoa Vang in August 1945. In the anti - American war
(1957-1975), the puppet government of Ngo Dinh Diem made this house a place for
betraying and executing communists. Accordingly, it was the place where the
local people rose to oppose the Americans and the Diem government. On 4th
January 1999, the communal house was recognized as a historical and cultural
relic by the Ministry of Culture and Information.
