00:00Thank you for listening.
05:20Viet Vodau also features training in the use of various weapons.
05:34This training takes place when the student has reached a certain grade.
05:39Things include the sabre, axe, stick, holberd, sword and the fan.
06:09Viet Vodau is best known for its scissor technique, which consists of striking or grasping the opponent
06:34with one's legs.
06:35This can be aimed at the legs as well as the neck.
07:05Viet Vodau is therefore renowned for its spectacular acrobatic displays.
07:13There are over 20 different scissor techniques which can be used.
07:18Training in scissor techniques starts with attacking the legs before gradually working its way up to the neck.
07:24They are in the middle of the neck.
07:31The one who is standing in the middle of the neck.
07:38Okay, let's go out.
07:42Let's go out.
07:44Getting started.
07:48Did you hear that?
07:56Yeah.
08:00Contrary to what you might expect, there are many women practicing martial arts in Vietnam
08:24and throughout the rest of the Indo-Chinese peninsula.
08:30I'm out!
08:34I'm out!
08:42I'm out!
08:52Viet Voodoo also involves mock battles between two people.
09:07These are known as Song Lu Yen and are generally featured in demonstrations or grading sessions.
09:22Hanoi is a flourishing place.
09:51Hanoi is a flourishing city. With an estimated population of 7 million the city is perpetually expanding.
09:58For the last few years motorcycle traffic has created severe congestion and the city has an ever increasing number of motorcycle taxis.
10:06In order to reduce this congestion various underground railway building projects are underway.
10:21There are few shopping centers in Vietnam. However there are many markets where the Vietnamese do their shopping.
10:28Vietnamese is one of the rare Southeast Asian languages to use the Roman alphabet.
10:43meaning Westerners can read the words without difficulty.
10:47However the language is tonal so the same word may have several different meanings depending on how it is pronounced.
10:53Prices are displayed in Dong the Vietnamese currency.
10:56In early 2015 one US dollar was worth around 21,000 Dong.
11:00which explains why the price for a simple sweet treat may have several zeros at the end.

11:27Vietnamese cuisine is influenced by Chinese cuisine.
11:37With the difference that it uses fewer sauces and more herbs and vegetables.
11:42One particular ingredient is unique to Vietnamese cuisine.
11:46Nhuok Nam, a salted fermented fish sauce which is used as a seasoning.
11:51So the audience is interested in the world of lovely cuisine.
11:54That is everything you would imagine.
11:56Now, it has a nice taste of the food.
11:57Let's eat.
11:58Look at it.
11:59This is so amazing.
12:00So the most important thing is you can get a pic of the cheese.
12:01It is so amazing.
12:03It is so great.
12:04That's a great deal to go.
12:05You can get a picture of me.
12:06It is too late.
12:07Outside of the markets, there's also a great number of itinerant traders, whose stores
12:37are more rudimentary but still attract many customers.
12:41The old town is in sharp contrast with the new town.
12:45Because of its growing population, Hanoi is constantly assimilating neighbouring towns.
12:50Nowadays, skyscrapers are appearing in some districts, full of flats to house a new, more
12:55affluent generation.
13:07Hanoi sits on the banks of the Red River Delta, but the real natural treasure lies a few
13:19hundred kilometres away.
13:22One of Vietnam's main tourist attractions is Ha Long Bay, which is classified as a UNESCO
13:35World Heritage Site.
13:37It's a large expanse of water with thousands of small rocky islands and a good few creeks.
13:56In 2011, Ha Long Bay was recognised as one of the seven natural wonders of the world.
14:26Many of the islets even have grottos on the island.
14:54Many of the islets even have grottos leading to interior lakes.
15:24Many of the islets even have grottos on the island.
15:41Ha Long Bay aside, the rest of Vietnam also has a wealth of magnificent landscapes, including
15:47Phong Nake Bang National Park and Nha Trang Bay.
16:17A private museum near Saigon houses a large collection of Vietnamese traditional costumes.
16:32Over the years, fashion has evolved.
16:36Clothing has become more than just something to wear, but also an expression of social standing,
16:41hospitality and history.
16:44Different styles help to distinguish social rank, financial status and Vietnamese mindset
16:49down the years.
16:50adviser gets to connectIVES down the years.
19:49The main part of the training is composed of hand-to-hand combat techniques.
19:53The influence of the many varieties of boxing which inspired its founding father when he
19:59created Vietvodau is plain to see.

20:35As well as the choreographed battles used for demonstrations or gradings,
20:39Viet Vodau also features real competitive bouts.
21:05As well as the
22:29Viet Vodau is governed by ten principles and a motto.
22:35The motto is, be strong to be useful.
22:39And the first of the principles is to strive to reach the highest level in order to be able to serve one's fellow man.
22:47Practitioners must excel in every aspect of the art, whether it be hand-to-hand combat or the use of weapons.
22:53Weapons include sabers, halberds and fans, which were the weapon of the nobility.
23:07Practitioners must observe the code of conduct and place honour above all else.
23:11They must also live an honest, modest and noble life.
23:14John!
23:27A Viet Vodau practitioner must develop a will of steel in order to overcome difficulty and all the challenges life throws up.
23:52This will only be possible if they train and work hard to forge their spirit and lead a humble and benevolent life.
23:58John!
24:09John!
24:10John!
24:10John!
24:10John!
24:11In Viet Vodau, as in most martial arts, every demonstration or fight ends with a salute in three movements.
24:35Here it is.
25:05Hanoi is alive, day and night.
25:08A constant flow of cars crisscrosses the city.
25:12Lining the roads are many little temporary betting booths where people can place bets.
25:37People stop there for a few moments before leaving with their chit.
25:42Vietnam's capital is divided into four districts, some old and some more modern.
26:11In the old town, certain districts or streets are entirely dedicated to a specific trade or business.
26:17As well as traditional shops, Hanoi also has a great number of street vendors and small trading booths.
26:27Where many Vietnamese do their regular shopping.
26:37But in recent years, Hanoi has experienced a demographic boom, which is why many neighboring provinces have been subsumed by the metropolis.

27:37One of the most revered temples in Hanoi is the Literature Temple, founded in 1070.
27:44It's a Confucian temple in the west of Hanoi's old town.
27:49Many Vietnamese come to visit it, and it's the city's main tourist attraction.
27:56It's mainly frequented by school children and students.
28:01It's divided into five separate, walled courtyards, with its main alleyways reserved for noblemen and narrower alleys used by servants.
28:13The nobility used to send their children to study literacy here, so that they could be well-read and become civil servants.
28:22The children of the many dynasties came here to learn the teachings of Confucius.
28:28Traditionally, during the revision period before exams, the youngsters come here to revise, as this is believed to bring good luck.

28:57The great pavilion in the fourth courtyard houses the statue of Confucius, surrounded by his four closest disciples.
29:07This is the most sacred part of the temple, which explains why the students come here to revise and pray.
29:15Thanks to the French School of the Far East, the literature temple was restored several times during the 20th century.
29:25The 100,000 dong banknote features the image of one part of the temple, the well of heavenly clarity, which lies in the third courtyard.

30:40Everything in Hanoi happens on the back of a motorbike, even drinking beer and, of course,
31:10rice wine. So if you plan to visit Vietnam in the near future, be assured that beer will
31:17be part of the itinerary. The Vietnamese consider beer to be the perfect accompaniment to a
31:23meal. This may seem strange, but the Vietnamese like to drink their beer with a huge ice cube.
31:32Ice cellars also provide the wherewithal to cool down bike saddles heated by the burning
31:38sun.
32:48One of the ten principles of Vietvodau is that knowledge must be acquired dutifully.
33:17And that the art should be passed on to the new generation.
33:22As in all sports, children begin their training with a warming-up session in order to reduce the risk of injury.
34:28So the children can develop their sense of team spirit and cooperation.
35:03From their very earliest years, they learned the different moves of Vietvodau, mainly the arm locks.
35:131, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 9, 10, 10.

36:17At this age, rather than being a combat sport, it's a normal sporting activity for the children
36:37to enjoy.
37:03The younger children also try to learn the different choreographies mastered by the older ones,
37:08which will help them work their way through Vietvordal's different levels.
37:23The younger children are playing the same way through Vietvordal's different games,
37:32but they are playing for the same time.

39:38Viet Vodau has come a long way in the last decade and has acquired many new devotees of
39:50all ages. More and more parents are enrolling their children in Viet Vodau classes. As
39:57over and above combat skills, it also teaches noble principles such as comradeship, perseverance,
40:03love and respect. In the south of Hanoi, there's a lake known to all Vietnamese. Legend has
40:21it that once upon a time, the king discovered a sword in a fishing net and used it in all
40:27his wars, notably the one where the Chinese were expelled from the kingdom and peace restored.
40:33With the war over, the king enjoyed taking boat trips on the lake.
40:41One day, the golden turtle god emerged from the depths of the lake and snatched the sword
40:47from the king. The king realized that the golden turtle had entrusted him with the sword and
40:55had come to take it back once peace reigned again, as he had no use for it. Succeeding
41:02dynasties have embellished the banks of the lake ever since.

41:56There were many turtles in the lake, but no longer.
41:59But to see a turtle in the lake today is seen as a good omen for the coming weeks.

49:04It has to be remembered that Viet Vodau's motto is be strong to be useful.
49:25The idea is to be strong mentally as well as physically, and to be helpful to others.
49:30The blue colour of the uniform represents immensity, the purity of the skies and the oceans.
49:37Because the future of any culture, any sport and the values they embody is reliant on good communication to the next generation,
49:44Viet Vodau masters do all in their power to pass on the art to the younger generation.
50:00Viet Vodau is a complete martial art, harmonising body and spirit, attack and defence, power and grace of movement.
50:15Just like its hugely popular martial art, Vietnam is a nation that has found equilibrium between tradition and progress.
50:25Vietnamese have lived for centuries amidst a moral and religious universe,
50:31built on beliefs and values issuing from the cult of ancestor worship, Buddhism, Confucianism and Taoism.
50:40But Vietnam has also been heavily influenced by Western culture, whether it be its cinema, its music, architecture or literature.
50:48Despite being supposedly communist, Vietnam remains a very open country where all the same brands can be found as in the West.
50:57Vietnam is a country which is constantly developing while trying to preserve its ancient traditions.
51:04Vietnam is a very active space, the universe of beauty and national Christians.
