Tu Luong Communal House was built in the early 19th century and completely restored in the 24th year of Tu Duc (1871) to worship the local tutelary god, the ancestors and descendants. In general, the communal house still retains its original features from the architectural structure, construction techniques, to the decorative art on the roof, all clearly showing the characteristics of traditional folk architecture. In particular, the art of sculpture and carving on the altars, incense tables, and the interior decoration all follow the folk conventions associated with the customs and beliefs of contemporary society.
