(VOV) -The space of gong culture in the Vietnam Highlands is home to cultures that value gongs. It spreads in the Central Highland provinces of Kon Tum, Gia Lai, Dak Lak, Dak Nong, and Lam Dong.


The UNESCO recognized it as a Masterpiece of the Intangible Heritage of Humanity in November 2005.


The gong culture sees gongs as a privileged connection between men and the supernatural, where each gong houses a deity whose power corresponds to the gong’s age. It has been strongly affected by economic and social transformations that disrupted the traditional transfer of knowledge and stripped the gongs of their spiritual significance.
