(Baonghean.vn) - Men weaving, women weaving brocade. It is a very peaceful and warm image that people can easily see whenever they have the opportunity to visit Chau Tien commune (Quy Hop district).

| Chau Tien Commune was separated from Chau Hong Commune in 1990. The commune has 9 villages and nearly 2,000 people, of which nearly 98% are Thai ethnic people. Weaving and brocade weaving are two traditional occupations that have been preserved by the residents of this land for hundreds of years. Photo: Ho Phuong |

| While women are involved in the craft of weaving, Chau Tien men are known as the "artisans" of the Muong village; the craft of weaving has also existed for a long time and has been maintained through many generations.

| In recent times, aiming to preserve cultural values and identity, while contributing to creating products that are close and friendly to the environment, the brocade weaving and knitting profession of Chau Tien commune people is gradually being restored. Thanks to that, local people have had more income from this traditional profession. Photo: Ho Phuong |
