“Today, when visiting communal houses, temples, or ancestral homes, we can surely still see imperial decrees, where the gilded highlights still shine as if recalling a beautiful past of long ago, even if time, however unintentional, cannot fade them away…” (Nguyen Xuan Dien) Gilded ink on brocade paper – a collection of travelogues and cultural research with many articles vividly portraying the fine cultural traditions of the Vietnamese people. These writings will help us better understand the lands, historical relics, customs, and typical practices that form the unique cultural background of the Vietnamese people. The book leads readers on a journey through ancient texts, immersing them to meet the shadows of the ancients on every line of text, gradually fading the dusty layer of time. With profound knowledge, passion, and an expansive, nostalgic, and poetic writing style, Gilded ink on brocade paper acts as a bridge connecting thousands of years, bringing readers inspiration, interest, useful and fascinating knowledge, helping readers to be more proud of the culture of their ancestors - Vietnamese culture. We cordially introduce this book!
