The Mường people

In the mountains of Northern Vietnam live the Mường people, one of the largest ethnic groups in the country. The Mường often live in stilt houses in villages. They live mainly by growing rice and raising poultry and cattle. They have their own language and traditions and are known as friendly and welcoming people.

In modern life, many of the Mường people still make their clothes themselves. They need to be very creative, talented and patient because their clothes have colourful patterns on them, which are difficult to make and take a lot of skill and time. Mường women often wear a long black skirt, a white shirt and a plain or colourful headscarf. Men often wear a long white shirt with dark trousers.

The Mường people have their own style of music and they play the gong, one of the traditional musical instruments of the Mường culture. There are songs for special occasions, such as moving into a new home, and songs with stories about the history of the Mường. The Mường people are proud of their traditions and culture.
