🇻🇳Bamboo tree is a significant symbol in both Vietnamese culture and daily life, and is completely inseparable from the nation. The solid, straight and high bamboo trees represent the resilience, indomitability and bravery of the Vietnamese people.
.
Also, as the bamboo trees often grow in clusters with a strong vitality, it represents the solidarity of Vietnamese people as well as their diligence and loyalty to their homeland. During the war, Vietnamese people sharpened bamboo trees to make weapons to fight against foreign invaders - may not be very effective but was honorably heroic.
.
Now, years later, bamboo trees are used as materials to build houses, make furniture and other useful everyday items. I passed by this street in Hanoi and it's full of bamboo shops. I wonder: is there really such a huge demand for bamboo ladders that the whole neighborhood can make a living out of it? @ Hanoi, Vietnam
