Vang village has the Chinese name Da Bang village. The name Vang village has many different explanations according to folklore. The most common explanation is: in the past, Co Loa citadel was a bustling urban area, so this was an area where many goods were traded. In Vang village, the population was densely populated and mainly sold gold. Therefore, Vang hamlet means Gold Street, and "Vang" is a misnomer of the word Gold.
Over the course of nearly eight centuries - by the early 19th century, Co Loa had transformed from a ruined citadel into a large village and commune, a gathering place for families from all over the country with an agricultural economy, handicrafts, and markets. Co Loa is also one of eight communes in Co Loa canton with a long-standing historical relationship, as evidenced by the fact that the eight communes jointly organize a festival to worship An Duong Vuong.
In the past, Co Loa had 3 hamlets equivalent to 3 communal houses, in which Vang village and Thuong village belonged to Dong Nhat hamlet.
The typical architectural works of the village today include: the village temple, Tran Nam temple, Tran Dong temple (now only ruins), Ba Chua mausoleum, stone temple (now only ruins) and some ancient houses in the village.
