The Japanese Bridge in Vietnam, Hoi An, Ancient Town.
00:00:00
The morning comes to Hoi An, an ancient Vietnamese town.
00:00:05
The city is in central Vietnam.
00:00:09
It began receiving foreign trading ships during the late 16th century.
00:00:11
In the 17th century, Japanese merchants sailed here aboard shu-in-sen,
00:00:16
ships granted permission to trade overseas by the Japanese shogunate government.
00:00:20
In the 18th century, Chinese people started to settle here
00:00:28
and built houses that are still part of the cityscape.
00:00:31
Houses were built with a narrow shop front and a small front entrance
00:00:35
to allow as many merchants as possible.
00:00:39
One of the old bridges in Hoi An is called the Japanese Bridge.
00:00:42
It was originally built by the Japanese and later rebuilt by the Chinese.
00:00:46
The bridge is also known as Lai Vien Bridge.
00:00:52
It converts a bridge of friends from faraway countries.
00:00:55
At first sight, it resembles pictures from the early Edo period
00:01:00
when Japanese merchants came here to trade for silk and spices.
00:01:04
Several hundred Japanese lived here and created a Japanese quarter.
00:01:13
Most of the remaining old town was built by the Chinese.
00:01:19
This is a typical single-story house built over 150 years ago.
00:01:24
Here, triple-layered beams add great character to the building.
00:01:31
Successive masters of this house have taken care of it
00:01:38
by regularly applying resin to the surface
00:01:40
before the beginning of the new Chinese New Year.
00:01:43
The house is narrow and long, extending past the inner garden and deep into the rear.
00:01:46
These houses are similar to the merchant houses in Kyoto in Japan.
00:01:52
The kitchen is at the farthest end of the house.
00:01:56
As the number of foreign visitors increases,
00:02:01
many people are thinking about repairing their old houses.
00:02:04
Renovation requires special skills and is expensive.
00:02:10
To keep tradition alive,
00:02:15
old timber building parts are taken out and reused where possible.
00:02:17
The same kind of wood must also be used when new parts are made.
00:02:22
People on bicycles now have to push their bikes across the Japanese bridge.
00:02:29
The people of Hoi An now think seriously
00:02:35
about protecting their traditional heritage and culture.
