Vietname (203)

Việt Nam
"Independência, liberdade, felicidade."
O sentimento de patriotismo tão patente que nomeia uma importante cidade com o nome do seu soberano, num orgulho modesto que nos confunde.
"Độc Lập, Tự Do, Hạnh Phúc "
"Independência, liberdade, felicidade."


Huế
Túmulos Reais da dinastia Nguyen
Uma janela, uma abertura que protagoniza um símbolo que remete para uma tradição, para uma crença herdada dos chineses.

"The usage of this Chinese symbol come down from their belief in 寿星 shòuxīng (Canopus), the star God of the south pole. Chinese people believe that he has the power to control the life span of the mortal. Now you know why Chinese people consider 寿 (shòu) as the symbol of long life.
Anyway, the legend says every person’s life span is determined after we were born. Therefore, the number (digits) cannot be changed. But the 寿星 shòuxīng has the ability to twist the digits. One of the widely told tales will be about a boy who only has a life span of 19 years. He met a fortune teller who told him to serve wine and food to two old men playing chess in the forest. He also told him not to disturb them. The boy did what the fortune teller told him. These two men turned out to be the old man of the north pole and the old man of south pole ( 寿星 shòuxīng). They were very satisfied with the boy’s behavior and they reward him by changing his lifespan from 19 to 91 years. The young boy live happily for 91 years and died a peaceful death."
